[QUOTE="Pamela, post: 4437, member: 554"] Hi Marti, My son also is very gifted and also loves music. We have just now started him into it. My difficult child is wonderful at school but at home is a different story. He recently started to become violent with me so I read the explosive child and chose my baskets. The first one was homework...see ya! That was one of the biggest problems, so at parent/teacher, not iep I told them since he gets A's and B's I don't want any homework sent home. He's to do all of it at school or suffer the bad grades. His first progress report he got all B's, can't beat that with a stick. The second problem was bed time. Another basket C. I dont care any more what time he goes to bed or where he sleeps. It'll be his problem in the morning if he's tired not mine. Another problem solved and since then, no violence! Home is now pretty much user friendly, we still have the usual ODD stuff though. I also realized that early on I was already using the baskets, but just didn't know it. Only, when someone saw me backdown from a request he refused to follow (like make your bed) they berated me for it. Instead of realizing like myself, who cares if the beds not made...he's only gonna mess it up again when he goes to sleep. One small step....One giant leap!

Justin ADD 13 yrs old Adderal 36 y/o Mom on Wellbutrin for depression and doing well. Favorite Motto: Don't sweat the small stuff life's to short! [/QUOTE]
