[quote=Anonymous]Hi, BTDT with lots of highs and lows. Its not about he diagnosis entirely. Its really about how your child can function in the camp setting and what it takes to succeed. One part of sleep away camp that can be hard for ADHD kids is group living. In ability to organize thier stuff, messiness in the cabin, impulsivity and hyperactivity can undermine good relationships and lead to conflict. There is lots of camp life that takes place before meds kick-in and after they wear off. Look for smaller bunk sizes. You will need a camp staff that can coach your kid with TLC. Obvi look for a solid program that can handle daily meds. Most sleep away programs have this to a science. [/quote]
