[quote=Anonymous]Op here. This is very helpful! My kid doesn’t have emotional regulation issues as far as I’ve observed—she’s never explosive and her main way of dealing with conflict or disappointment is being mopey, but in a pretty normal way. We are not overly hesitant to medicate I think—we’ve been trying medications. I’m just feeling disheartened that they’re not working (at least not in ways we/her teacher notice) and wondering if others gave up. It’s helpful to hear that others eventually landed on stuff that feels good to kids and makes noticeable improvements. I agree with what people wrote about the teacher’s thoughts. She has 25 kids in the class and my kid is the least of her problems. Without a clear behavioral or learning issues, her opinion is “your kid is fine.” The kindergarten teacher was more strict, so I think my kid’s spacey behavior bothered her more. She also seemed a bit more observant. Thanks! [/quote]
