[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 132301, member: 805"] I agree with Kathie that there has to be an approach that does more than take away for bad. There need to be incentives for good, a search for something(s) he's passionate about, and the best thing or things that motivate him. I've had much more success with rewards for good choices than I ever have with consequences (although they do work as well). I think sometimes our difficult children live in a world of constant "no's", "don't do that's", "what have you done's". I'm not assuming that you haven't tried the positives with your son. I don't know the full story. There is no signature on your post so I don't know what your son is diagnosis'd with or what medications he may be on or has tried in the past. I do believe that, as parents, we do play a role in how our children react. But at some point, their choices have to fall on them. I hope you find some answers. Sharon [/QUOTE]
