[quote=Anonymous]You say youre a teacher and you diagnosed him but there is so much you don’t know based on your post. Keeping kids active is great but doesn’t prevent adhd. Read about adhd in young kids. There are ways you can change your parenting and expectations without medicating. My now teen started on a year and a half ago and it’s been great for her. She only takes on school days though. At home, I’ve changed my expectations. I use lists a lot for her, she sets alarms as reminders, I check in with reminders a lot. I don’t punish for things she can’t control, I redirect her focus. [/quote]
