[QUOTE="wethreepeeps, post: 30278, member: 3436"] My difficult child repeats this pattern over and over when he earns a reward, or earns back toys or privileges that have been taken away; he gets the gift, or the toy, and he's so excited and happy that his impulse control goes out the window and he behaves inappropriately (crashing the remote control car into the cat, or screaming with frustration when the gameboy's batteries run out and throwing it across the room). I've had to learn to introduce new things really gradually, and things that over stimulate him are only allowed in moderation. Music is a big, big trigger for him, he loves techno-sounding dance music but it's almost as if he gets drunk on it, he dances and dances until he's giddy and euphoric and completely out of control, so access to his cd player is limited to thirty minutes twice a day on a good day, none on a bad day.
