[quote=Anonymous]I would get some kind of parenting therapy/behavioral therapy. You’re on the right track trying to ignore the behavior but it seems like you could use some more advice on structure and discipline. I wouldn’t worry about trying to get a diagnosis for now because you’re going to want to try behavioral therapy first - this isn’t the kind of kid that needs meds as a first line treatment. And also a diagnosis is not therapy and you don’t need one to get behavioral supports. (Our behavioral psychologist specifically said diagnosis did not make a difference - if the treatment she offered failed then we could try something more targeted.) Behavioral psychologists will be very familiar with the kind of behavior you are describing. [/quote]
