[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 294177, member: 1550"] If it were me, first on my list would be to have her re-evaluated by a neuropsychologist. Sounds like, with an hour of raging, there's more going on than ADHD and she may not be able to help her behavior. Our kids tend not to respond to mainstream discipline. You can try canceling her party, but don't be surprised if it doesn't make any difference. I think sometimes we think our kids are "bad" when it's really that something is wrong with them. That doesn't mean we should put up with intolerable behavior, but it does mean that in order to help them change their behavior we need to get a better handle on what's wrong with them so that we can help. In young kids, the first diagnosis usually evolves as time goes on. ADHD is often the first, rarely the last and only, diagnosis a child gets. in my opinion more is going on than ADHD. I'd call a neuropsychologist. They can have long waiting lists because they are good. [/QUOTE]
