[QUOTE="Monacm, post: 534205, member: 14743"] For those in particular who work full time, how do you handle the stresses of your difficult child? My daughter started with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) along with an ADHD diagnosis this year and her sudden lack of compliance to attending class that took place for a good three months caused multiple phone calls from school, multiple meetings, and a near miss to transfer to a therapeutic day school or Special Education school when she started displaying ODD behaviors. We knew with the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and the inability to miss work that she needed to still go to school and it was often a battle of our sitter (and later us) dragging her on the bus. She's had several weeks of therapy and started Intuniv which seemed to help, but I find myself headed to the office in fear of the next call or episode. She is 7 and finishing 2nd grade. I can't help but stress over what 3rd grade will be like and whether I can scrape by on the job if things escalate again. Advice and encouragement would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
