[quote=Anonymous]What is the consequence for refusing to take the meds? Has he ever taken them? I have an 8th grader who started meds in 7th. Took a few months to get to correct dosing. She is like night and day on Ritalin vs off it. She knows she can focus and concentrate better on the meds. There is no phone/tablet on school mornings at all. Phone doesnt go to school and she can only have it once everything else is completed after school. It charges in my room from 830pm onwards. She goes to bed/lights out around 930. She’s very active in sports which helps channel the energy for us. I wouldn’t let a 14yo just choose not to take meds though unless there was some awful side effects. He doesn’t get that choice if he wants privileges while living in your house. [/quote]
