[quote=Anonymous]OP if she has only just started meds I would give it more time to see if school gets better. It took my DD about 5 months to even get to the right dose. She still doesn’t enjoy the academics of school but it’s better now that she’s not struggling to pay attention and have focus all day. I agree with you that she should do something. Does she have close friends that she could try an activity with? I’d make her earn screen time. It needs to be limited. When mine was 10 she could only have screens Fri after school thru Sunday evening. Even then it wasn’t just free rein. She’s 13 now and it’s linked to grades. No screens whatsoever in the mornings on school days. Has to maintain As/Bs to have screens after school. Do what works for you, maybe some free screens after school, like an hour, but any extra has to be earned. [/quote]
