[quote=Anonymous]As the parent of a kid who has been diagnosed with ODD (in addition to the PRIMARY dx of depression and anxiety), I would say that the program outlined above emphasizes predictability at the expense of other factors. What kids with anxiety also need is structured activity and responsibility, at a level that is still quite difficult to achieve in the home environment, especially for teens. Basically, you do have to have their time COMPLETELY scheduled--along the lines of what you'd find at a boarding school, where "free time" is minimized.[/quote]
