[QUOTE="soapbox, post: 603659, member: 13003"] Try putting the "consistent" label into effect on the rest of life - it's more important than on discipline. Create order to your life and your difficult child kid's life. Simplify. He really cannot handle as much as you think he can, and he has no effective way to tell you that, so he acts out. If he is developmentally different, you will find that when he isn't doing well it is NOT because he doesn't want to... it's because [U][I]he is unable to do so[/I][/U]. (this approach also works for typical kids... but what works for typical kids doesn't work for kids with developmental differences) Somehow you have to find ways to peel back the layers and make life work on a level that he can handle. Once he is stable and coping, THEN you can start adding in complications. Of course... school IS a major complication... and the powers that be don't allow for developmentally different kids to do school at their own pace and in ways that work for them... [/QUOTE]
