[quote=Anonymous]I don’t like kids on screens. My DD w ADHD is grown now but we did no screens. Minimal tv starting at 3 (PBS a few hours a month) and she had no access to computers (iPads weren’t a thing). She sat at a computer for the 1st time in K. She got her first phone in 8th. But even though I dislike screens for kids, it made no difference in her case. Meanwhile, my youngest who is now in HS seemed like he would be an ADHD diagnosis and it turned out when his speech and motor delays were addressed and he matured, he didn’t have ADHD at all. I think age 3 is really early to draw conclusions. 3 year olds don’t focus and should be expected to be in motion. I do think a developmental pediatrician might still be helpful if you have concerns about other disabilities that are best addressed early. [/quote]
