[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OG is definitely for dyslexia. Nobody wants to medicate a young child, but this sounds like her ADHD is affecting her ability to learn, and she needs to not fall behind now, which will be a problem for her in every grade going forward. Try the meds. You can always stop them. You will probably see a happier kid who is not overwhelmed in school and feeling bad about herself for not doing well. Early intervention is key while her brain is supposed to be these key foundational concepts for academic success.[/quote] Meds are a last resort for children, doesn’t sound like OP has tried other things yet.[/quote] Last resort? According to whom? You? How much do you have to try for meds to be acceptable (sarcasm)? Without meds my young child couldn’t even sit to learn. Don’t judge other parents, we are all trying our best. [/quote] I’ve yet to meet a child that can’t be taught to sit without meds. It takes months of time and patience but it’s always feasible. Drug your kids if you want, but every doctor I ever encountered said they’re a last resort, especially at that age. [/quote]
