Hi all, does anyone has experience of children with conduct disorder/ oppositional defiant disorder?

Hi @iza. Is there something, in particular, you are questioning about conduct disorder/oppositional defiant disorder at the moment?

Hi @L_Volunteer, thank you for replying to my post. I am looking for someone who has experience with these disorders and could share with me tools/strategies how to speak to children abs what strategy to use to make life easier.

Hi @iza, sorry this has gone neglected until now.

I do not personally have experience being a parent of a child with Conduct Disorder or Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). Though, I have read how ADHD can be associated with both and had I been diagnosed as a child I'm sure I would have fallen under ODD (while I was never violent in anyway, I certainly questioned authority a lot as a child). 

I have found these clinical guidelines from NICE. It is quite a read but I hope it provides some insight. There are specific section for "Help and Support for a conduct disorder" and "Information for Parents and carers".

I hope this helps, again sorry this has been neglected for so long.

Hi @Jimm_Scope, 

thank you very much for respond and thank you for sharing links with me. I will definitely take your advice and read the guidelines tonight. 

Thank you
