[QUOTE="Needsupport, post: 183974, member: 5730"] Hi, I'm new here. Still learning my way around. I have 4 children ranging in age from 5 to 24; 3 boys & 1 girl, she's the 5 y/o. My 7 y/o was diagnosed with-ADHD with-Impulsivity about 2 yrs ago. He's on Focalin XR, 15 mg. The doctor thinks that he's showing symptoms of ODD as well & I have to agree. In fact, I've suspected this all along. My issue is disciplining. I've tried to talk to my friends but because they don't have children like this they don't understand & think that I just need to be "harder" on him. And maybe I do because nothing else seems to work with-him. I've tried time outs, taking things away, talking to him, behavioral charts, ignoring bad behavior & praising good. Nothing seems to work. I never know what's going to set him off, how bad it will be or how long it will last. I just need some input. I need to know that I'm not alone. My husband is "in the picture" but frankly not much help... [/QUOTE]
