[QUOTE="SRL, post: 114531, member: 701"] Hi B, welcome to our forum. If your board moniker here is your last name, I'd ask that you change it for the sake of your family's privacy. It sounds like you have your hands full with your 3 little darlin's! If you aren't familiar with the book The Explosive Child by Ross Greene I suggest that you get a copy and study away. That, and getting thorough evaluations, are the number 1 and 2 pieces of advice around here. There's an article about adapting it to young children at the top of this board which is a good start but you'll definitely want to get the book. Your comment about your daughter lining up toys, tuning you out, and raging fits, caught my attention. Did/does she have any speech differences at all--ie delays when she was younger, odd or adult sounding speech? I ask because lining up toys is a huge red flag for Autistic Spectrum Disorders. Here's a link to the highest functioning form of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD): [URL]http://www.aspergersyndrome.org/[/URL] What kind of specialist diagnosed her and how much time was spent doing that evaluation? Has she been evaluated by an occupational therapist? Some kids whose toy lining up is this constant do it to regulate their bodies in space, not as a manifestation of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). [/QUOTE]
