[QUOTE="Martie, post: 12794, member: 284"] Hello everyone-- I just had to post when "books and websites" were described as unhelpful. You are ON a website and based on The Parenting Experience Survey, 85% of the 627 respondent have read TEC and many of the remaining 15% are newbies who intend to read the book. in my opinion TEC builds positive parenting skills and relationships with the child. Greene writes the best explanation of what is going on with ODD children I have ever read. by the way, people DO recover from ODD--one way or the other. It's a pediatric diagnosis, so children either mature out of it, have another diagnosis if other symptoms become clear(er), or are diagnosis'd with ASPD. About 1/3 of ODD kids go on to ASPD, a high %age and scary, but the odds still favor something else emerging in later adolescence. Hopefully something treatable. As far as WID's son's diagnosis, the early diagnosis of ADHD followed by severe depression would lead me to think of bipolar also. Children with Early Onset Bi-Polar (EOBP) often as misDx'd with ADHD, and then the stimulants make the bipolar worse. I hope your wife comes here. I will help get on the same page with you which is also very important in my opinion. Martie [/QUOTE]
