[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you "try something else" if he was prescribed eyeglasses or anticonvulsants? It's a medical problem though it does have behavioral ramifications. I have watched so many parents go through the "we won't medicate" routine and end up medicating. Why? Because its the gold standard treatment according to the Academy of Pediatricians. If there was a different options, we would be the first to recommend trying that first. I wholeheartedly disagree with the "it's a parenting decision " above. A relative (who's also an antivaxxer) refused to medicate and now has a senior student who has reading problems, is barely passing his classes, has no interests in anything, has depression and is on track to go work at the grocery store upon graduation. Total waste of a lovely child who had tons of potential [/quote] +1000[/quote]
