Guest guest Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Hi, I don't know about anyone else, but my dd is just the opposite.. everything HAS TO BE fair.. We have more problems with the kids playing games and the others don't play fair in some way and she has a fit.. This includes whether it is her or someone else being treated unfairly. I saw what you are talking about in my younger bro though, when he was a kid he would do those types of things and if it didn't go the way he wanted he would get in rages and pity parties of " nobody loves me, everybody hates me.. etc. , he had ADHD. Melony We have a 9 y.o. son who has ocd. He also seems to have anger control problems and playing fair. For instance, tonight he was playing hide & seek with his friend. When it became his turn to be " it " he screamed, " I hate you, " friend " , this isn't fair, etc. etc. " He also told his friend that if he tagged him he would " sue him and his family. " He also made an unkind remark about his friend's mother to his friend. The friend and his parents are our neighbors and friends. My question, is this common among other kids with ocd? Any suggestions on anger management. Otherwise he's not having a lot of obsessions at this time and is doing pretty well. This is also a problem if he thinks someone can turn a better flip on the trampoline or kicks the ball further. Any kind of competition among friends really bothers him.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 My DS seems to go both ways. It all depends on what he deems to be fair. Sometimes it IS being meticulous about the rules...and other times it is what he interprets the rules to be that he will get stuck on. However, since adding Lexapro I have seen a real change in the positive direction in all aspects. So far so good. Knocking on wood over here.
