[QUOTE="Sister's Keeper, post: 688077, member: 20051"] I'm glad things are looking up. It is good to hear good news. We found that medication really worked. I know a lot of people are against it. When our oldest came to live with us he was unmedicated. We didn't have behavior problems, per se, it was more of not doing/completing his work not actually acting out. The intuniv, and in a small dose, really helped that. In the beginning we offered a lot of positive reinforcement for completing work. Like if he had a week where he completed all his seat work (that was the major problem) we offered a reward on Friday. Maybe it was an extra hour of game or TV time. Maybe choosing a movie to watch, maybe going out for ice cream, but something that seemed spur of the moment. Maybe that could be something you could offer to help bolster your relationship? Silly, I didn't think of consequences with the bedtime thing. I just remember carrying a 3 year old back to bed, and was thinking how I would do that with a 10 year old LOL. [/QUOTE]
