[quote=Anonymous]To the person who mentioned "extinction burst" I was told this too- when I finally tried to get a better handle my DS's defiance. You have to weather that storm- it's not a sign that your methods aren't working. Another thing that helps (my DS has ADHD so it's really critical) is advance boundary setting. Lay out a simple set of family rules in plain sight that everyone is expected to follow. I would be specific- no yelling, no name calling, no put downs, knock on doors, respect privacy, etc. Do this in advance so that when consequences occur they don't seem arbitrary. Also, if your DD is anxious or overwhelmed that needs to be dealt with as well. She's probably going through a lot of change/pressure right now. Some understanding will go a long way. [/quote]
