[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 76276, member: 3419"] Hi. Welcome! Here's a cup of tea. I agree, your psychiatric wasn't all that helpful. She did have a point-- that your difficult child, Madison, is bright and could work around things. But, assuming she's ADHD, ODD, (and since her sibling has it, it wouldn't be a huge surprise if she did, too) and has sensory integration issues (there are some really good books on that, by the way--I highly recommend you buy The Out of Sync Child, as well as Ross Greene's The Explosive Child), then what you need is a child psychiatric who can held you navigate all of this. Find a new child psychiatric who is into behaviorial training. You will also want to continue testing to see if she truly does have ADHD, etc., to see if medications will help. Sorry about my run-on sentences. I hope you made some sense out of all of that! [/QUOTE]
