[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At most schools, teachers are not able to suggest screening. They are giving you many, many hints though. You have to take the initiative here. [/quote] Even if I straight up them if I should consider testing? The response has been, “He’s a 7 (or 8 or 9) year old boy!”[/quote] Dp. Yeah, I think you're picking up on their cues correctly. That type of response sounds like they don't see it. It's true teachers can't suggest screening, but that's not the type of response one would hear from different people who think so, but are trying to dance around the issue. Some of these issues are harder to tackle at home, but slowing down and checking work is easy to practice at home. That might be a good one to start with, when trying to build up those exec functioning skills, whether he has ADHD or not.[/quote]
