[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 433735, member: 805"] Feather, First, welcome to the board! it's not unusual for dad to not be on the same page. Many of us started that way. Usually over time, as the difficult children grow and affect the family more and more, they begin to come around! So your daughter, at 6, has been diagnosis'd with ODD, Anxiety, and ADHD - that's a heavy load, especially the ODD. Now that she has been diagnosis'd, what's the plan? Will she be going to therapy? Will she be starting medications for the anxiety or ADHD or both? Has the doctor given you some behavior modification suggestions for home? The diagnosis is just the beginning, now the work begins! But I know it is a relief that someone else saw what you felt for years! We can totally relate to that feeling!! I would suggest picking up a copy of Ross Greens book, "The Explosive Child". It is one of the books we pretty unanimously recommend on the site. It gives a different perspective on dealing with our challenging children. Glad to have you here. Sharon [/QUOTE]
