[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 675300, member: 11791"] NC Momma - perhaps you can inform us of the therapies that actually work for ODD? My son was labeled ODD in his early teen years. The counselors and therapists and psychologists and psychiatrists would not give him any other label. But the tough-love approach they advocated only made things worse. I had to do my own research and find other approaches that are [I]not recommended for ODD,[/I] to try... and found that approaches used for kids on the autism spectrum worked best - not a complete answer, but better. Then he became an adult. And as an adult... he got a whole different set of professionals, and a whole different theory on behavior and... he IS on the autism spectrum (Asperger's), plus bi-polar, and finally starting to get the help that he should have had 10 or 15 years sooner. I have seen this over and over with other parents and kids that I know in person. Label = ODD but... mental health, developmental issues, or sexual abuse were the root of every ODD kid I have known.
