[quote=Anonymous]I've heard of doctors who will do it as early as 2. Our doc is highly, highly opposed to making the diagnosis before 7. Even then, he doesn't think a "label" is necessarily necessary or helpful. My guess is that if your preschool is saying your son has problems, you're at the wrong preschool. Perhaps you should take him for an OT eval and start OT- that helped our son (who is probably ADHD, we just haven't had him diagnosed because we're not interested in medicating him at this point). I also suggest reading the book Boys Adrift. That was really helpful for us.[/quote]
