[quote=Anonymous]Op, I think you're in for a long haul of teaching skills. Just remember that for ADHD kids, they can be like 3 years behind their age in terms of emotional maturity. So it all about taking baby steps towards building specific skills. Make a list of behaviors that are problematic and the likely skills that are missing, and then work on one at a time. I also like the PP's note about modeling, which at this age may work better (I think he may need another year or two to be able to do much with cognitive behavioral therapy).[/quote]
