[quote=Anonymous]My ADHD needed another year to mature--perhaps even more. But academically even in preschool, he was advanced beyond the K curiculum. I did not red shirt and socially it has created some issues. He can't self regulate, hides under the table when he's upset, and is still struggling to use his words and contain his impulses. I have medicated him as well. He's reading at a 2nd-3rd grade level, understands place value, and spends much of his day explaining the work to his peers. Yes the work is not challenging. I can't imagine him being another year older and sitting through this work but by the same token he's still on par with a 4 yr old socially. I don't know what the answer is but the current offered solutions suck.[/quote]
