ODD/ADHD in 8 yr old girl
My stepdaughter has ODD/ADHD and anxiety, and in the last few months she has become out of control. She has started to steal my 15 month olds diapers and using them at night because “she’s too lazy to get up”. Then hiding them in her room. She has started stealing anything and everything she can. She is in therapy, meets with psychiatry once a month. We are starting in home counseling, and they are recommending when she has anger outbursts to call 988 for a crisis team. Has anyone dealt with the stealing, lying, bathroom issues, misbehaving that comes with ODD and found something that works? Psych says creative punishments, but nothing is working ughhhhhh

How do you teach your kids responsibility?
At what age is this a reasonable expectation. My daughter is 4 as of August. Shes very smart, but lately we’ve had a horrible time with responsibility, paying attention and respecting boundaries. She is constantly losing things like her beloved toys, and her water bottle, or leaving things in the car then having a crisis because she wants it wherever we are. She is constantly doing the exact thing we tell her brother to stop doing, or not to do then lies about it or smiles like it was a joke. I’ll tell her not to bother her baby sister while she’s asleep or eating, and she will continuously grab her hands or feet while she’s eating and then look me in the eye and tel me she wasn’t. I don’t know what to do anymore..

What do you think abt a babysitter telling your lo at this age to pick a color from the crayon box and then says remember you have to share because I’m coloring too.
The babysitter said this to my daughter and she threw a tantrum after 😭
