[QUOTE="buddy, post: 483491, member: 12886"] Well, here is where I will truly disagree, and as you know, I really do like cps and rdi but have not figured out how to incorporate it in a real world (outside of home) setting because the fact is... you can't force people to change their approaches no matter how much educating you do. They have to be wanting to really learn and to look at the big picture. they are too concerned with getting thru the day and their image to other parents, etc. All politics. But in terms of medications. A child can be missing skills, medications will not affect that. A child is missing chemicals or chemicals are not working right for them to send brain signals to be able to learn skills, a child is missing brain parts to be able to learn skills............... medications CAN help with that. That is not an either/or situation. There is no chance in hell of teaching my kid anything without medications. (during a recent medication error in the hospital, he didn't get his medications for a full day, and this child who has NEVER had to be locked up in a room or restrained was put in a locked room FOUR times, follow-up neuropsychologist testing with a controlled medication delay and then testing on the medications showed he could do tasks at a remarkably improved level) Tradition is not all bad.
