[quote=Anonymous]My son is 8 and was received diagnosed with ADHD primarily inattentive. He had gotten in trouble at school nearly everyday since he started preschool. In 2nd grade, he broke down in tears (and he never cries) and said he just wants to be good but he can't. He was doing his best. He started on meds this school year and he is finally proud of himself. He isn't getting in trouble, he finishes his work, his handwriting is so neat that I don't recognize it, etc. The list goes on. If your child us suffering, I think you need to make a plan. If it includes meds, so be it. I could see my son going down the path my brother took since they are almost exactly alike. My brother started using drugs in high school and got kicked out. He did finish HS somewhere else but failed out of college and never went back.[/quote]
