[quote=Anonymous]I see different aspects of this in both of mine. My oldest has ASD and absolutely must have routine and predictability. If he's stressed by hunger, lack of sleep, or unpredictability, ODD behaviors start flaring up. He's 9yo now and much more self-aware now. If he's not stressed, he's a delight to be around. He responds best to structure and Dr Greene approach (The Explosive Child). My younger son is extremely independent and hard-headed. If I tell him to do something, he has to make clear before he does it that he's not doing it just because I said so. Routine helps with him because it let's him be more independent and in control. He responds better to Kazdin approach but any negative feedback backfires since he will double down rather than give in. He does actually want to please, he just has to feel like he's in control of himself. [/quote]
