Hello,
I joined the site becasue I was sure that my daughter 4 and 1/2 had ODD. The Psychiatrist today said that he would diagnose that at this point. He said that she is very bright and that she is very verbal. These 2 combined with her age make he actions in the range of normal behavior. He said that she will be challengeing and that we all need behavior managemnt techniques. The next step is counseling for the family. I am pleased with the outcome and I agree for the most part. I am still going to stick aroun the site. Althought she is not ODD officially, she has OOD behaviors. Best of luck to all of you. I pray for all of the children of the world today.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
