Thank you, Carole. I love you too! I know that I run a rather tight ship, but I think that I use pretty good judgement too. I pick my battles. I took some parenting classes on ADHD children back when he was first diagnosed. I learned alot there, and you are right, disciplining an ADHD child isn't as simple. The biggest thing that I learned is that the punishments have to be immediate and directly related to the offense. For most ADHD children, yelling or timeouts are ridiculous. They are to busy thinking about the punishment to think about what their actions were. By the time you put them in timeout, they've forgotten what they have done, so it is pointless.

Jaden's a pretty good kid though. Mike and I were shocked, this was so out of character for him. He rarely gets into trouble. His ADHD is more problems with paying attention, not so much behavior problems.
