[quote=Anonymous][quote]Four years old is still way too early to diagnose anything but the most extreme cases (which usually involved things like significant injuries). There's way too much overlap between the ADHD profile and the developmentally typical profile at that age. Obviously once you have an ADHD diagnosis in your older child it's easy to look back and see symptoms during their younger years, but another child with the same symptoms could completely outgrow it.[/quote] I think what is concerning is how unusual certain characteristics are even as compared to her peers. (I'm a PP not OP.) She probably has the one of the hardest times sitting at school of both the girls and boys. Similar story at soccer - which is basically just running around at this age and which we thought would be a good fit - where she is an outlier too.[/quote]
