[QUOTE="buddy, post: 500431, member: 12886"] Hi... I think it for sure would be helpful to get more of a picture of your little guy. ODD for a youngster like that... may describe his behavior but the bigger question is why is he having those behavior challenges??? THAT is what is treated, both medication wise and behavior method wise.... so birth history, developmental milestones ok?? , what types of behaviors? When, where, what things do you use, not use, for discipline??? Many of us have kids that no matter what you try that other parents find useful, doesn't work. I really feel for you, not only overwhelming but must be a little adult conversation deprived. For now, can you buy locks for your cupboards? I use the magnet lock ones... they are much harder than those dumb plastic things that kids quickly learn to push down and open. My 15 yr old can't open them unless he finds the magnet key but of course I keep it on me....and then hide it in the laundry room (right off the kitchen) when not in use. I realize this is probably be just one of the many things they get into but it sure helps to have some rooms that lock and they can't get into. Of course the goal is to have them stay only in approved areas even when you are not in sight. But while you are working on that......... locks are your friend. [/QUOTE]
