I’m pretty connected with a local moms group of special needs kids. What had me wondering about school settings is that I am hearing similar complaints from many of these moms, and they do medicate their kids. Medication helps many of these kids, but not enough.
Stimulants were a game changer for my adhd dc but have very little effect on the outcome for my other adhd +asd dc. He finds it impossible to care about school because it doesn't interest him at all. The subjects aren't things he is interested in..
