Do you "walk on eggshells" around your child, avoiding conflicts that will "set him off?" Have you tried everything to stop the hostility, anger and aggression and all you get is more of it? All children show some level of defiance from time to time. But in children with Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), the defiance, hostility and refusal to comply are ongoing and the behavior affects the entire family. ODD is one of the toughest of all parenting challenges. But I've seen that when parents use the right tools, they can change their child's oppositional behavior—quickly and dramatically. A Lifetime of Experience with Oppositional Defiant Disorder I have a very personal understanding of ODD because I displayed severe oppositional, defiant behaviors as a child and teenager. For the past 30 years, I've been a behavioral therapist, focusing my work on helping oppositional, defiant children and teenagers to turn their behavior around. I know the frustration, fear, isolation and exhaustion you're feeling as a parent because I've worked with hundreds of parents just like you. Parents of kids with ODD feel like they're trapped in little prisons with no way out. No matter how hard they try, they can't escape the endless arguments with and ceaseless hostility from their child.

Contact us What is oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)? Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) is a behavior disorder, usually diagnosed in childhood, that is characterized by uncooperative, defiant, negativistic, irritable and annoying behaviors toward parents, peers, teachers and other authority figures. Back to top What causes oppositional defiant disorder? Some experts believe that a developmental sequence of experiences occurs in oppositional defiant disorder. This sequence may start with ineffective parenting practices, followed by difficulty with other authority figures and poor peer interactions. As these experiences compound and continue, oppositional and defiant behaviors develop into a pattern of behavior. Early detection and intervention into negative family and social experiences may be helpful in disrupting the sequence of experiences leading to more oppositional and defiant behaviors. Early detection and intervention with more effective communication skills, parenting skills, conflict resolution skills and anger management skills can disrupt the pattern of negative behaviors and decrease the interference of oppositional and defiant behaviors in interpersonal relationships with adults and peers, and school and social adjustment. The goal of early intervention is to enhance the child's normal growth and developmental process, and improve the quality of life experienced by children with oppositional defiant disorder.
