[quote=Anonymous]00:11 again, to explain the med part. My son has severe inattentive ADHD and we medicated him at 10. The deficit in communication and social skills exists because of the ADHD brain, and meds can only partially compensate, depending on the severity of the disorder. In our case, medication helps my son focus and work quicker, which has been life-changing, but it does much less for his reading of others and his socialization. I'm not saying OP's son wouldn't benefit from meds - but don't expect them to work instant miracles in the social realm. [/quote]
