[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 495041, member: 3419"] Welcome, Opposchiz. I hope by the time you read these responses, you have gotten some sleep! Frankly,the only kids I've heard of or read about jumping out of cars are on this board, and most are bipolar. Yes, it's possible that your grandd has more than one diagnosis, so I would still have her given a neuropsychologist test (it's long, hrs long). You are so right, punishment doesn't work. She doesn't get it, and more than that, she can't control it. Re-directing and re-doing the way you do tasks, meals, errands and school is the way to go. Find her triggers. Transitions? Or just the word, "No"? Certain fabrics? Certain people? Tones of voice? You get the idea. You have to seriously redo everything, no spanking, no yelling, nada. It's going to be a hard transition because you are all wrapped up in a certain type of behavior right now, (been there done that!!!) but you can do it. Sorry, gotta go--I'm having a serious hot flash and can't focus and my fingers are slipping off the keyboard. [/QUOTE]
