[QUOTE="Janna, post: 22916, member: 2737"] Linda, I have found on the road with Dylan and easy child (I keep difficult child 2 out of these things, because well, you know why), especially where Dylan is concerned, it is better to not consequence the rages. However, typically with Dylan, the rages came from something else. For example, he didn't want to do his homework. I told him if he didn't do his homework he wouldn't get his 30 minutes on the Playstation. He raged. If he didn't do the homework, he lost the privelages. If he did, well, he got the Playstation. I have taught him a few better ways to deal with the rage part, but must admit the majority of problems in that department were handled with medication. But I always felt Dylan's rages were completely out of his control, and therefore shouldn't be consequenced. But as I said before, if there was a defiant refusal to do a task that led up to the rage, if that task was not completed, a consequence was always set in place. Make sense? Probably no help lol. I'm glad you had a good meeting and left feeling like you got somewhere. Janna [/QUOTE]
