[QUOTE="Janna, post: 22418, member: 2737"] Maybe I don't understand what you're asking. Explosive behaviors have nothing to do with ADHD. Nowhere in the DSM criteria for ADHD does it say anything about raging/tantrums/meltdowns. We limit Playstation and computer time here because Dylan (diagnosis'ed Bipolar) cannot handle the game for any long period of time. He gets frustrated. He loses or can't beat a board. Things have gotten broken and he has lost his temper. He has slammed that stupid joystick on his head more times than I can count on two hands. When it gets to the point his voice is raising, it goes off. End of discussion. It sounds like the incident with your husband and the money, that sounds nothing like ADHD to me. You should use this navigation system to the right of the screen and read up on the other disorders. Read up on ADHD too. Those symptoms don't sound anything like ADHD (and I have an ADHD kid too, that does NOT explode, ever, and he's true ADHD, Combined Type). Janna [/QUOTE]
