[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd be skeptical of focusonthefamily.com as it's run by a highly conservative group. While I agree with some of the stuff in the previous comment, simply waiting for a clearer diagnosis and filling the time with physical exercise and time management doesn't provide much help for the many 4 year olds with true adhd issues. In our case, it didn't matter if my son ran around a park like a maniac all day or watched tv for 8 hours. The end result was the same: a kid with major symptoms of adhd at a young age. Suggesting physical exercise and a strict bedtime as part of the solution for a 4-year old with adhd sounds like something a conservative Christian organization would suggest. [/quote] I will note - we have tried behavioral therapy with my son since he was 4, and OT since he was 3. He's 5.3 now, and we just started 5 mg on focalin and its the first time I've been hope that some of the behavioral stuff we are doing might help.[/quote]
