[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Intuniv supposedly helps with impulse control. I do think that you need to have a meeting with teachers and administrators and let them know that she has challenges as a byproduct of the ADHD and ask them to help with strategies rather than being punitive. For instance, if everyone realized the pencil thing was an accident, why’d she have to be punished and write an apology letter? If she can’t sit still at her table, perhaps movement breaks should be built in. She needs to recognize that her actions are unacceptable and at the same time there need to be tools to manage the behavior. Also a behavior chart may help. [/quote] +1 The punishment for the pencil thing seems harsh. Sounds like she needs more movement breaks built into her day. My kid's K class actually has flexible seating options. Is it possible to get her a balance ball chair or some other type of seating that allows her to wiggle a bit. [/quote]
