[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually, if his behavior is still too impulsive, even with meds, he probably needs either another med check or executive function tutoring. In my experience at very similar MS, behavior was not an issue — there will be kids with more severe issues. However, at a small private, behavior is an issue - more detentions, silent lunches, poor behavior / effort grades on report cards, etc. Don’t mistake small class size for suddenly improved behavior.

Thanks for the reply.  I actually was thinking the small class size would let the teachers get to know him and so would recognize tapping a pencil as an impulse vs. a misbehavior.  Not major misbehaviors going on, just active boy stuff.  He's got a good heart and I'm worried it won't be seen in a larger crowd.[/quote]

I hate when parents claim their child's behavior or medical issue is just "active boy stuff". It's not. There are plenty of boys who can sit in a class without impulsive behavior. If your child has an identified medical problem, own it and work on treating it. Don't chalk it up to "active boy stuff."[/quote]

Did you read the part of that he’s on medication and they’re addressing it?[/quote]
