[QUOTE="JLady, post: 219420, member: 6439"] Well we saw the child Psychologist. He didn't say what I wanted to hear. I wanted him to tell me that ADHD was the problem and the medicine was the answer and we all live happily ever after. Guess I still believe in fairy tales. The psychologist agreed with the ADHD/ODD diagnosis. He pointed out the ODD issues and said that there isn't medication to help with that disorder (I guess you call it a disorder). For some reason, in my mind I see ADHD as something that can't be helped and isn't anyone's fault. But I don't see ODD as that. ODD seems like a bad parenting thing to me for some reason and feels like I'm a failure in some way. I asked how we "fix" my son. He said we don't "fix" him. We teach him. I'm so lost. [/QUOTE]
