[QUOTE="hamlet, post: 432457, member: 11970"] Thank you, Keista, and believe me I do not take medicating my son lightly nor am I happy about it. He was raging, physically and verbally abusive toward me for over two years before I could get a therapist to believe me and it was not until almost three years after that he started to take medications. In know for certain that the medications did not cause the behavior, in fact the medications have helped my son to stay calm enough that he can reason sometimes, and his physical aggression has greatly diminished. Plus, he just seems to be happier. Still, the possible side effects and the lack of study of these medications on pediatric patients is concerning. I would prefer he did not need them. ETA: my difficult child has never formally been diagnosis ODD [/QUOTE]
