[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 130742, member: 1550"] First the ODD. It rarely ever stands alone. There is most often some other diagnosis driving the ODD behavior and until it is found and taken care of, the ODD persists and escalates. I'd see a neuropsychologist or a Psychiatrist (with the MD) for another opinion as to whether or not it is only ODD. ODD is a hand-in-hand diagnosis with mood disorders and often appears with kids who are on the autism spectrum too. Your son isn't better so it's worthwhile to get another perspective. Maybe his medications are making him worse instead of better. Secondly, I'm friends with my ex for the sakes of my kids, but if I talked to him every day, took rides with him, invited him in for dinner, etc. my hub, who isn't a jealous man, would get upset. Reverse the situation and think of how you'd like it. I'm sure he feels insecure, even though he won't admit it. I would be very insecure if my hub was that close to another woman. Frankly, I don't think it's right to see somebody of the opposite sex without your hub being there--let's face it. Attraction CAN develop. I wouldn't stay close friends with a man unless my hub was around when I saw him because I want to keep my marriage solid, and I sure wouldn't want him being good friends with anyone female unless I was always there too. Call me insecure, but I wouldn't like it one bit. Anyways, I hope it all turns around for your child--I know how hard it can be :) [/QUOTE]
