[quote=Anonymous]The reality is that you may or may not be heading to an ADHD diagnosis. This kid is probably mild enough that it is too young to tell. But whether he has ADHD or is just a little behind his peers on working through this, punishment/consequences are a terrible idea. First, you have to let go of any expectations of what having a snack or meal should look like. The goal is just to feed your kid. Second, there is some good advice about this kid needing to burn more energy already in this thread. Work on that and quit criticizing the roving meals. Third, ask the teachers if they believe his inability to sit it wildly off the mark compared to peers. They are never going to say “go get him evaluated for ADHD”, you have to probe some.[/quote]
