[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, I will be following this thread because your post pretty much describes my son except that he is in 5th grade rather than 7th. We had the Vanderbilt forms done by our pediatrician, which showed mixed results with our assessments being much more in line with ADHD than his teachers assessments, so the pediatrician did not give him a diagnosis. Still, he's struggling in school and his grades are all over the place. I don't know where to go next. [/quote] PP, you might want to get an evaluation by a neuropsychologist. It is possible that the teacher didn't objected rly evaluate your child. I had this with my spouse. What happened was that she only considered his behavior when she worked with him o e on one with a project and only after he got engaged on something he liked. Our doctor discounted it because he even found the evidence to be so off what the other two found and what he had been seeing for years. [/quote]
