[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 303654, member: 3419"] Yes, it is more common. The worst behaviors will be exhibited against the parent who spends the most time with-them. Usually, that's the mom. I learned that the hard way. :( You've got to share as much parenting as possible with-your husband. Let him share the load. Give him entire days (weekends, if he works FT and you're home) and it can't be all fun stuff. It has to include chores and homework. That's where these kids really get uptight. I agree with-others here, you have got to learn to detach. Some days it's easier than others. Sometimes you have to take medications yourself. Whatever it takes, do it for your own peace of mind. We don't all need to end up with-heart conditions. I wasn't aware that ODD behaviors were exclusive to bipolar; my son is Aspie-lite and he's ODD, although he has improved with-yrs of therapy, Adderall, and Imiprimene. It's possible he's got a mood disorder as well, but anyway, that just caught my attention. [/QUOTE]
