[QUOTE="kris, post: 56076, member: 74"] [I]by THE BOOK are you referring to dr. greene' THE EXPLOSIVE CHILD? where in that book does it say it's okay to excuse/not consequence violence? he places safety at the top of the list of things to be consequenced. i agree with-SRL. where is his responsibility in all this? where are his consequences? it's all well & good to say he has no impulse control, but how are you teaching him to gain control? first thing i would do is give up the medication~free summer because it seems to be causing more harm than good. second i would find a physical consequence for him ~~~~ & no, i don't mean spankings or such. do you live in a home? even if you don't have a fireplace get some firewood & have him move it from one spot to another.....he'll be, hopefully, too tired to be quite so impulsive. if you don't have a yard....take him to a park & have him run, & run, & run. don't think of things he'll enjoy....it's really kind of important that he NOT enjoy it. i see in your profile that there are mood stabilization issues for difficult child. have you & psychiatrist ever discussed the use of an antipsychotic to try & curb this tendency toward violence? maybe it's time to trial a mood stabilizer? kris[/I] [/QUOTE]
