I Am Looking for a Natural Way to Treat Oppositinal Defiance Disorder Any Ideas?

Question by Jubalee: I am looking for a natural way to treat oppositinal defiance disorder any ideas?
I have a 6 year old daughter who is ADHD and ODD. Her doctor has
her on aderall and now wants to put her on Risperdone. I am just not comfortable with that as it is an antipsychotic besides on doctor a couple of years ago tried it and it gave her a “tic” He was a quack anyway. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Go get a second opinion. There are more choices than Risperadone. Therapy might help.

Madam no matter what you do you can not “medicate” your child into obedience. Aderall is nothing more than methamphetamine. and the antipsycotics that gave her a “tic” ( tardive dyskinesia) all of them do this. I would suggest the age old standard way of raising kids.
