[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 4th grader in AAP (since last year) who was diagnosed as 2E with ADHD (combined type, but it's mainly inattentive and fidgeting) - and thus far the child has not been medicated.
The child already has a tutor once a week for a writing but continues to have writing issues (and it's ONLY writing issues - the child is above grade level in both math and reading, and no behavior issues).  The writing issues are both form (hard to read) and content (totally disorganized).

I am just really struggling on whether I should medicate for only these writing issues, and wondered if anyone else had experience.  I don't know that there is anything else short of medicated that we can do - I feel we've reached the end of other options.

This sounds like my kid too.  How did you get the 2e diagnosis? Recommendations are welcome and will be appreciated.

Do you have a 504/IEP?

I’m new to this.  My kids AAP teacher seems is telling me about organization, time management, and attention issues.  But I’m not getting any information about evaluations for LD’s.  They get evasive and an administration always becomes involved when I bring it up or when I ask too many questions.

My kid also has trouble writing too.  But I want to do something, it’s to the point where my kid wants out of AAP.  But I know his issues won’t go away.[/quote]
