[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds exactly like my DS. He has ADHD and hid meds have the added benefit of cutting down on some of his contrariness. He has always been very verbal too so while other preschoolers were having tantrums, he was correctly people. If someone said, "I like your blue shirt" my DS would say, "It isn't blue. It's aquamarine." Exhausting! I learned faily quickly not to engage any of that behavior. I learned quickly to just say, "Mmm" or something else non-committal. [/quote] +1. DS with ASD/ADHD is like this too when not on his ADHD meds. Really obnoxious and contrary. I was told by DS's psychiatrist that this is classic behavior for kids with ADHD and you know when the medication is working when this type of behaviors no longer is happening.[/quote]
