Great to hear this story on the radio. We need more parents talking about their kids' experiences to take away the stigma and misunderstanding.

Our 13-year-old son has struggled with ODD for the last five years....we were lucky to have received help when we did. A family friend pointed us in the right direction and we got help. He is managing it well....my advice is if you think he needs help, reach out for it. 

On Monday on CBC Radio Toronto's Metro Morning show, Andy Barrie spoke with Faye More and Connie Harrison, about a new program that deals with mental illness and homelesness called 'At Home/Chez Soi'. See below to listen to the segment.

Hello. I have a son, aged 7, who I am concerned has oppositional defiant disorder. I have not gone through any formal testing, but he seems to fall into all the categories … I wonder if there are any parents there that I can connect with? I appreciate your time - thank you.
