[QUOTE="Jody, post: 343244, member: 8787"] Big Brother, I value the ODD diagnosis here. I am glad that you are in therapy. I have two children. My oldest doesn't have ODD or ADHD and she cannot live at home right now because of the ODD issues in our home. I miss her and love her dearly but no one is going to help with the child that has issues and everyone wants a straight A, easy going, sweet, joy to be around child. It breaks my heart to miss out on this time with her and it's unfair. I talk to her about it alot so that she knows that I love her just as much. I am glad that she doesn't have to go thru the drama. But anyway, I can't imagine how the easy child sees things and I hate all the things that they have to endure because of another's mental health. You are very much welcome here, and hope that you get the advice that you need and are looking for. ODD tapers off when a child becomes an adult because they make their own decisions and don't normally have someone to be totally defiant with. There's another section on here that deals with difficult child's as adults. It talks a lot about detachment and how to get there. That might help you some. It is great that you care about your sister even though I am sure that she put you thru a lot. Take care and keeping posting and looking for information. It is good that you care enough to even bother looking for other people who have gone thru what you have. Jody [/QUOTE]
