The baskets/plans work some of the time with difficult child 1.  I sort his behaviors into different catagories and each one needs a different response.  His anxiety/ rages/ bipolar/ ADHDness get the basket approach.  Then there are times he needs everything to be very strict and if it doesn't happen he can fall apart.  I think of these times as ODD behavior, but I think it stems from the abuse ex is putting him through.  He just needs to know that mommy is in control for his own sanity.
