[quote=Anonymous]My 7 yr old son has ADHD. He is medicated. We've been involved in a social skills group but it's not generalizing to school. Where do I go now? If something happens, it's never his fault; someone else made him behave that way. If a privilege is revoked, his response does not fit the punishment--ie a major tantrum over losing his ipad until his homework is complete. His response is over exaggeration---that he has now lost it "forever" or "for the rest of my life". His negativity about himself is overwhelming. If he is not picked first for a perceived fun activity, than he feels that he will always be picked last forever. However, he feels that for a non preferred activity, he is always picked first. How do I help him turn his negativity around? Or who do I turn to for help to help him?[/quote]
