[quote=Anonymous]My DC was in a bilingual program for years, diagnosed with ADHD. Some slower progress at first, as usual with bilingual programs, but it all came together in about 4th grade. ADHD also impacted working memory, processing, and so DC is slow but very verbal. After 4th grade, DC really progressed and now tests several grades above in English and at grade level in the other language. I don't think the language hurt at all in any way other than what you usually see with NT kids. I just figured that kids in Quebec are all in bilingual programs, with ADHD or not, so why deny my SN kid the gift of a second language. [/quote]
