[quote=Anonymous]Have you had your younger son evaluated? That would be the place to start. Teachers, at least in public schools, are not going to tell you that medication is needed, or even that evaluation is needed. They hint at it, but sometimes pretty subtly in my experience. Also, it’s pretty striking that you talked about only the academic outcomes, not any of the social effects of ADHD, which can be devastating and are also appropriate reasons to medicate or seek other help. There are social skills groups aimed mainly for kids with ADHD. [/quote]
