[QUOTE="marymoo1, post: 493765, member: 13491"] Thank you Allan i'll look into those links.. Thanks Dee and soapbox. i've looked into local developmental pediatricians and i am going to organise an appointment for a second opinion. i'll let you know how that goes. last year we did introduce a 'reward' chart etc with the reward being pocket money at the end of the week if all tasks were done. this seem to start as you say with a negative attitude but has been going well as it is also teaching him to save his money for those things he wants to buy. I will definately continue with the reward chart this year although it has slacked a bit over the holiday period. my son usually stays with my parents in the school holidays for a week or two which he loves (as they spoil him) but i am onto that also asking my parents to respect my rules when parenting him and not to bow to his every whim. they are slowly getting on board. he is the youngest grandchild of 11 in total. Apart from the NYE incident we've had a pretty good two days with him sitting still whilst we read him books and with the whole family enjoying activities together all be it video games etc, at least we are all together and nobody is getting angry. my husband is planning a bushwalk this afternoon so that will be good. mary [/QUOTE]
