[quote=Anonymous]Question. Since your DS is diagnosed with ADHD, even if he is not out of control, as you say, why not try medication? My view on it, is that medication is primarily to help him, the patient, and not just because "he is out of control," and might be in trouble. We waited with my DD and started meds at 15 and it has been a mistake. She can't read social cues, can't tell when other teens are sincere or mean, basically she was winging it...With medication, she is finally starting to be calm enough to actually observe people and behaviors.
