Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD)
"Children and adolescents with ODD will find the weakness in the family
system and exploit it. Is there tension between father and mother? They will
aim to worsen this. Trouble with the in-laws? These children and adolescents
will try to exploit this. Are you out of shape and exhausted after work?
That's when they will be most trying. Are you worried or depressed about
something? They will try to figure it out and torment you. Dealing with a
child with ODD is very exhausting and trying. It will take about 1/3 to ¼ of
all your emotional, mental, and physical resources. If you knew that you
would be chopping wood for four hours every day, you would make sure you got
enough rest, a good diet, and had plenty of time to relax. The same holds
double for dealing with ODD in the long term. You have to take care of
yourself in ways you would not have to if your child did not have ODD."
