[quote=Anonymous]You are responsible and your DH. Put your foot down. As for social ADHD, I have a teen DD with it, hyper too. Sounds a lot like yours, no activity is to be passed, life was just like what you describe flight from one activity to another, all of the school was her friends. And she would crash and have a meltdown, depending on her age meltdown would be different. We finally medicated at 15. She is still really active, wants to do everything, but it is a little better now. If I could go back I would have started meds and therapy earlier, she was evaluated at 15, as I think it messed up with her ability to interpret others emotions and develop proper empathy to some extent.
As for what she insists, it is parents job to manage her expectations, and say no. ADHD or not, you are saying yes to avoid her tantrums and hysterics, but if she is like my DD, you forbid one activity, she moves onto another before you finish the sentence. You need to step up and parent your kid. If you don't want meds, then you need better skills of  your own so that you are the parent and not a groupie of your social ADHD child.[/quote]
