[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 170255, member: 1550"] Be careful. ODD rarely stands alone as a diagnosis--all the kids here have ODD traits, but that isn't the cause of the ODD. I think most of us have also read "The Explosive Child." How was your child's early deveopment? Social skills? Eye contact? Anything on either side in the family tree--mood disorders, any form of autism/Aspergers, substance abuse? ODD appears in all childhood disorders. I recommend, even at a very early age, a neuropsychologist evaluation--they are the longest, most intensive and in my opinion the best. They know about both psychiatry and neurology, whereas therapists just know a little about psychology theories. With many disorders behavioral therapy just does not work and, as always, the earlier you catch a problem, the better the prognosis. Do NOT bank on straight ODD! Welcome to the board. [/QUOTE]
