[quote=Anonymous]I have a 7th grade girl. She is in all honors and her grades are fine. It seems pretty clear to me that she has an attention issue, likely ADHD. I do not think we would medicate her unless she started failing (no judgement, personal choice). So my questions is, is it worth the testing and hoop jumping to get her privately identified as ADHD? What types of accommodations would they give her that won't just make "real life" harder? For example: Longer time on projects - won't work when she has a job Give more slack for disorganization - she needs to learn to be organized. Thanks for any feedback! She is my oldest and I am just trying to figure things out. [/quote]
