[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 57861, member: 1991"] What a weird doctor! One minute says he doesn't think he can help, the next he's berating you and wanting to change difficult child's medications... can't have it both ways. Generally when a doctor takes it on himself to change a patient's medications, it's a way of saying, "You are now my patient, I will follow through with this and take charge of your health care form here." You will find doctors like this - they became doctors because they wanted to eradicate all illness. They are more pathological than most of the patients they see! And that's what they call it PRACTICING medicine - some of them NEVER get the hang of it! You can't punish a kid for what he can't change or can't control. If you do, all you're teaching the child is that he will be punished for who he is. Get your hands on "The Explosive Child" by Ross Greene. There is also some discussion of this book on the Early Childhood forum. This book helps a lot. Not everybody on this site swears by it - just most of us. It will certainly help you faster and more effectively that this doctor! Marg [/QUOTE]
