[quote=Anonymous]Hi all-

After many years of assuming that my child's impulsivity/restlessness/constant interruption was due to social immaturity that he would grow out of, we have finally (4th grade) decided to seek the advice of a developmental pediatrician.  In the meantime, I have a meeting with his teacher and guidance counselor tomorrow to chat about how to help him (and the teacher, who I get the impression he is driving CRAZY, I do not blame her I will mention) in the meantime.

Any thoughts on what I should bring up?  He is a very bright student (in school based Level IV AAP) but is really struggling with organization, impulsivity and the inability to be still....highlighted more now that he is in 4th grade and is expected to take care of himself, and sit for longer periods.

TIA.  Our parent meeting with the dev. ped is 11/19 and with ds is in December.

I am assuming that the dev. will bring up medication, which we are open to.  Any advice on other therapies you have found useful would also be appreciated.[/quote]
