[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 299706, member: 2459"] Brattiness or diagnosis related.....the next time he does something like kicking the car while you are driving....pull over. If he doesn't stop, call the police. Being like that in an enclosed MOVING vehicle is a danger not only to the two of you but to others on the road. If he's still acting like this when the police come, request that they transfer him to the nearest hospital for a psychiatric evaluation. If it is diagnosis related, they will either do something or at the very least, you have a paper trail. If it's not, a little scared straight by the cops can't hurt. Same goes if he does this at home. If he gets violent (against people or things), call the police. Whichever is the reason behind the behavior, it can't be tolerated and something needs to happen. I notice on your signature that difficult child is ODD and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Who has diagnosed him with these? What kind of psychiatrist and therapist do you see currently? Honestly, it sounds as if he needs a full neuropsychologist evaluation. ODD is usually one of two things. A) It's a diagnosis for when the doctor has no clue. B) It is rarely a stand alone diagnosis so generally there is something else going on. With his behavior and genetic history, I would lean more towards the BiPolar (BP) which CAN be diagnosis'd at his age. I would request a full neuropsychologist for him and see where that leads you.
