[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 168390, member: 1550"] Has your child ever been evaluated by a neuropsychologist? Are there any psychiatric or neurological problems on either side of your son's biological family tree? How was his early development--speech, eye contact, peer appropriateness, imaginative play, motor skills. ODD is not a stand alone diagnosis most of the time. There is usually something fueling the behavior--another bigger diagnosis. It is unlikely that you "spoil" your son any more than any parent--this isn't your fault. Something is "off" with your child and you owe it to him and to yourself to find out what it is. I would see a neuropsychologist as I have found they do the best and most intensive evaluations, often catching what others miss. Your own family tree can be very helpful to solving the "what is it?" mystery. What about the psychiatric, neurological or substance abuse history of his biological dad and his family? Yours? Others will come along. [/QUOTE]
