[QUOTE="indeeptrouble, post: 357837"] thanks so much Marg - I actually checked 'The Explosive Child' out of the library just yesterday :winking: First thing on my list is his sleeping schedule. He can literally stay awake until 7 am then of course want to sleep all day. I'm hoping his buspar will help with this - he was on it for a while but had to go off when first diagnosis with diabetes. Now we are working it back in and just adjusting his insulin dose to compensate. I tried Plan B on him this morning and we will be trying the following: let him have ice cream right before bed and he must be asleep by 10 - he goes to bed at 8:30. If that doesn't work and he isn't asleep by 10, then he will go to bed at 8 and we will change what TV he watches to fall asleep. (currently he likes karate type movies - lots of violence and action :frowny: but he explodes if I try to guide him to another genre of TV for bedtime. I don't know how it will work but I'm willing to try. husband is doing ok these days - he pretty much leaves the DS to me to deal with, which since they fight when the interact, works for me. I'm headed to that childbrain page to see about it now :happy: Thanks! [/QUOTE]
