[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is interesting, I had always assumed his behavioral challenges were related to his IQ, but I guess that is not necessarily true. Hi behaviors are dysregulated/sensory seeking/impulsive to the extreme/unable to stop once he gets going.[/quote] Have you also been evaluated for ADHD? My DS has an IQ about the same as your kid's. There is no doubt that ADHD plays the bigger role in our lives. How did you do testing for IQ but not ADHD? Medication can fix so much.[/quote] He does have ADHD but the meds are only taking the edge off, honestly. That is why I attributed so much of his behavior to IQ. It could be that we need to adjust the meds. He is almost 6, so we haven't been trying meds for long.[/quote]
