[quote=Anonymous]DS, 6, just got an ADHD dx. Current dx is dev delays. He currently hates school and has a hard time with the work but I know he's brighter than he seems at school (and testing seems to bear this out too). Tell me about adjusting my hopes that medication can "fix" everything, or well, many things. I feel weirdly happy that he can just take a pill (and yes, I do know that you need to manage that, find the right one and dosage) after so many years of hard work in therapy (no we won't stop that). What kind of gains can I hope for once meds are up and running well? What kind of academic improvement did you see in your kid (or not) once you started meds?[/quote]
