As you know in an earlier post I talked about my toddler being ADHD. Well he had his first Psychologist appointment the other day and she recommended a great book to me, it is called "The Explosive Child" It explained my feelings and understand my toddler much more than I did before! I don't feel as things are hopeless and as frustrated. Yesterday though in one of his "melt downs" he took a drawer from his dresser and threw it and broke it into several peices! as you can tell I wanted to go to my room and cry because it has been so difficult to understand why he has been so explosive. This book has explained so much to me, Not only could he be ADHD but could have other Psychological disorders to go with it. With close help I feel hope for us both! I can't explain how happy I was last night! I just felt so relieved.
 
Thanks so much for the book recommendation.

I borrowed this book from the library to give me some ideas on how to work with my 9 year old son. I started reading it last week and we have already had such an improvement and avoided many meltdowns. I can't believe the difference - I feel so much better and my son's frustration level is nice and low!:)

Thanks again - this book has been so helpful!
