Parent Management Training for ODD

Parents can help children with ODD by consistently applying positive reinforcement, establishing clear rules and consequences, engaging in active listening, and participating in PMT programs to learn effective behavior management strategies.

The PMT approach is a therapeutic intervention designed to teach parents techniques and strategies to effectively manage and reduce their child's problematic behaviors, focusing on positive reinforcement, consistent discipline, and improving communication.

Activities that promote cooperation, problem-solving, and communication skills are good for children with ODD. These include team sports, structured games, family projects, and activities that require following directions and working together towards a common goal.
