[quote=Anonymous]Is your child medicated? I taught so many kids with ADHD who were not, and school was a daily struggle for them. Once they were medicated, they could pay attention, be fully present, and began to feel successful. These kids are overwhelmed by all the information they are processing. It’s like trying to do your taxes in the middle of a rock concert while your shoes are too tight. And then you get in trouble, because all the other kids were able to keep up and put their taxes in the right folder and heard all the directions and remembered them, while you did your best and still failed. It’s a hard thing, to get a good school fit.[/quote]
