[quote=Anonymous]Yes, get her tested, especially if she's struggling. It may not be ADHD, but at least you'll know what the strengths and weaknesses are. She can get help if she needs it. Also, I would consider getting her short term tutoring in executive skills/studying. For many kids, these skills don't emerge naturally and they need to be taught strategies, even if they don't have any specific diagnoses. Studying/organizational skills are more important b/c the academic/life demands increase as they get older.[/quote]
