How To Address Disrespect From The Kid Suffering From ODD, ADHD, Asperger?
My son has ODD and he is very disrespectful to me and his father. He also has ADHD and Aspergers. How do I address the disrespect? It usually comes in the form of him not taking responsibilty for his actions and turning it on us. We're "mean" and then it's followed by he hates us and storms away. I'm tired of hearing these things and I need a form of consequence or disipline that we can institute consistantly that doesnt fuel his hostility.

Hello
First determine the boundaries of behavior which is acceptable . Then explain this to the child and reinforce positive behaviors but ignore negative behaviors. Consistency,persistence and clarity are keys to success. It is a slow process and requires patience.
