MamaJacci Thanks everybody for the feedback. You are all very insightful. Actually, when he was 16 or 17, a counselor did suggest that ODD was a possibility. You are all correct. I love my son very much. I also love his girlfriend. I am afraid for him that there may be...

MamaJacci Yeah, you're right. God's design is pretty amazing. Also, the gradual introduction to new things is exactly what the expert trainers say to do. It is so funny watching her react to new things. My husband built a new cage for her a couple of years ago. This...

MamaJacci I know what you mean about the pets following you around. I'm allergic to the dogs (ain't that a hoot?) so I have a gate at my bedroom door. When I'm in my room, they wait at the gate. Sometimes, I stand on the other side of the gate and give election...
