[QUOTE="Malika, post: 565347, member: 11227"] Well, yes, DDD but isn't an enlightened approach to difference trying to understand it at least to some extent, rather than just blame it? Particularly where children are concerned.... Don't get me wrong, I have frequently and shamefully failed in my own approach to J's difficultness, even though I know he doesn't do most of it on purpose at all. It is extremely aggravating and trying at times. But still... we're all supposed to be trying to accommodate the child. And no, susiestar, I don't use the ODD label at all with J not even to myself, even though he would certainly fit the criteria for that. Don't know why, it just stopped seeming useful or real to me at a certain point. Special needs kids are really difficult. There's really no doubt about that. But there are ways to make it better - positive reinforcement is good, and shaming and blaming doesn't work. I've got that far anyway. [/QUOTE]
