[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Spirited child" tells people you haven't figured out how to manage your kid yet. This is not a diagnosis of any kind and doesn't give you the right to expect an IEP or special treatment. ODD is over diagnosed, so is ADHD. Misusing terms like that does a real disservice to those who truly do deal with them and need help. A lot of the problems we now see with children who are "difficult" could be better managed by eliminating crap from their diet and making sure they get enough exercise. Sugar doesn't make kids hyper, but a lot of the dyes etc. can cause a problem. BTDT long before it was the cool thing to say. A helpful doctor showed me how to do an elimination diet 20 years ago before it was all the rage. [/quote] +1 And a stubborn child doesn't mean "oppositional defiance disorder". A friend noticed the same thing about cutting out dyes, especially red dyes from her kid's diet. World of difference in hyperactivity.[/quote]
