[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 53 and I believe that, when I was in high school, i had adhd because i physically couldn't sit still long enough to read my homework. However, 35 years ago, adhd wasn't diagnosed for every ailment the way it is today and I had to just deal with it. I was an awful student in high school and college, but eventually I learned to cope and I picked up several graduate degrees and became a tax lawyer. All this by way of saying, you (parent) are not the same person you were when you were your junior year of high school, and your DC will change too. It's probably more important that your DC feels supported and loved than that they get an ACT score that will get them into a T25.[/quote] So you "got over" your ADHD, no medication required? What sort of message are you trying to send here?[/quote] NP. “Learning to cope” because you have an undiagnosed neurodivergence is NOT the same as “getting over it”. [/quote]
