[quote=Anonymous]Good lord, reading most of these answers makes me realize why children with disabilites/special needs suffer so much. The level of misunderstanding in how one interacts and deals with these children is astonishing. By its very definition, children with special needs - and that includes ADHD and anxiety - will not respond to standard parenting advice (boundaries! consequences! show them who is boss!) that typically developing kids will. That doesn't mean they get to do whatever they want whenever they want, but it does mean you need a different approach. It's very important that you get your child assessed and find a specialist who can work with him/her.[/quote]
