[quote=Anonymous]I think the answer is that you do not start such a treatment until both parents agree. That said, I would urge your husband to consider a medication trial. ADHD stimulant meds work from day 1 and they are out of your system that same day. You start from a low dose and titer up slowly, if needed. If your husband saw what we saw the first few hours of that first day, I think he might be open to continuing. That said finding the right medication and dose can take a long time and a lot of coordination with the school. I think the upcoming winter break is a great time to start and observe your child and then work with the school through the end of the spring semester to get to a new normal! Best of luck![/quote]
