[quote=Anonymous]Therapy--for both the family and the child. If nothing else, you need to get at what drives the ODD. In my kid's case, it took therapy and testing to determine that her oppositional behavior is driven by severe anxiety, rooted in multiple early childhood traumas and attachment difficulties stemming from adoption. I'd caution against expecting therapy to "work" in the sense of giving you immediate results. To put it simply, you are not likely to see simple or straight-line progress, but a lot of one step forward, two steps backward or sideways for a long, long while. One of the hardest lessons I've had to learn is to detach from outcomes.[/quote]
