[quote=Anonymous]Our peditrician would not even touch the issue, they referred us to Children's developmental psychiatrist. My daughter scored quite high on their evaluation, it was us as parents that thought a lot of her behavior was normal because she was our first and we really did not have a clue. Other issues to think about are distraction is a biggie in the ADHD spectrum and often missed with an intelligent child who develops lots of coping mechanisms until it overwhelms them in middle school. Dyslexia often co-exists with ADHD so dis-tangling them can be a challenge. Since both of these have a high inheritable element do you have them in your family or does your husband. More than likely they were never "diagnosed" but you have the uncle that never could keep job, focus ect or had reading troubles. When I went through my family tree it was quite startling. [/quote]
