[quote=Anonymous]You can, but it takes a long time and a concentrated effort on your part, along with a willingness to participate and learn on his part. I achieved this with my youngest who has severe ADHD by teaching him tips to manage it effectively, by having him volunteer at our local food pantry where he had to work with adults, and he was like a sponge, soaking up the information. He's now 12 and if you didn't know that he has unmedicated ADHD, you'd be shocked to find out. I just taught him the life skills I've used to make mine work for me and not against me. My best advice is to use lots of humor. Humor diffuses situations quickly. [/quote]
