[quote=Anonymous]My son is 4.5 yrs old, gentle, sweet, intelligent kid. He started half day preschool (Montessori based) last year, his teacher is happy, he is easy to direct at school, no learning or behavior issues reported. At home, he takes 1 hour to finish his meal, if he likes something he can finish quicker but generally an hour (distracted?). He is very much into machines, numbers which is fine because that's just his interest but he likes to talk about them and look at them a little more than normal. Sometimes he speaks very fast and other person can't understand him completely so his speech concerns me a little, he does talk a lot but always says excuse me before interrupting. I get a feeling maybe he has ADHD, I called Dr. David Black's office and they have an opening for initial consultation. I am not able to decide if we should go ahead with full neuropsych evaluation or if we should wait for his teacher/school to say something. Please advise as I don't want to lose the appointment with Dr. Black but at the same time I am very confused. His pediatrician was not concerned at last year's check up. [/quote]
