How do I know if I have a challenging child or if it's just me? 

Here is how we define a challenging child:

• adoption or attachment issues
• wants to be in charge
• control issues
• manipulative
• defiant
• lies
• steals
• ADHD diagnosis
• oppositional defiance
• childhood bipolar
• conduct disorder
• school IEP
• lower functioning
• coming home after out-of-home treatment
• etc.

So now what? 
If this describes your child and you are feeling discouraged, at your wits end and like nothing is working with your child, there is likely a very good reason. You may not have been told that parenting a challenging child needs a different skill set. Traditional parenting doesn't typically work.
