[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 91051, member: 3626"] The one thing you can do now is read The Explosive Child. It has helped many of us. Even if it does nothing more than give you some insights into her mind. Another thing worth doing is having her get a complete neuro-psychiatric evaluation as soon as possible. It sounds like more may be going on than ADHD/ODD. The violence, infliction of pain on younger siblings, newly-started wetting really sound like screams for help. The best places to get this evaluation are a Children's Hospital or a teaching hospital. It sounds like she has been violent towards your son in the past. You may want to consider getting some therapy for him and find ways to reassure him that you will protect him from her. In the meantime, welcome. Your step-daughter is very lucky to have a second mom in her life that is so caring and a father willing to upheave a new family for her. Hopefully, she will grow into a loving woman much like the loving girl you know best with all of your help. [/QUOTE]
