[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 525981, member: 1169"] If your son is better behaved at his fathers house, it may not be due to his stricter rules as much as a stricter routine. I understand that there is friction between you and your ex, but maybe you can determine what the routine is when he is there and see how much of it you can mimic. While I agree with your ex that ADHD is a real diagnosis (where as ODD is more of a placeholder while they figure out what is reallygoing on), I agree with you that this sounds like more than ADHD. Have you spoken with the doctor about trying Clonodine? It is often used on kids with ADHD that don't respond to stims. It may be a way to get your son on a medication that helps while allowing your ex to still say it is "just" ADHD. [/QUOTE]
