[quote=Anonymous]I'd say she's pretty articulate. My DD who I suspect has some attention issues can't articulate at all what's going on in her head during school. Her teachers say she daydreams a lot, but does well when she focuses. Sounds like ADD to me, but I don't have the money for a neuropsych. My research says that ADD takes so many forms that it's difficult to pinpoint, particularly in very smart kids. My plan is to assume DD has some parts of ADD and get some sort of therapy or training for her. Why do you need a diagnosis? There is lots of therapy available even without a diagnosis. I'd never medicate my kid, but I'm going to try to get accommodations and some help for her from our very helpful private school. [/quote]
