[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone taken their child for an eval given the behavioral/impulsivity issues, but without academic problems?[/quote] Yes -- for older DC who is in 5th grade (at an AAP Center) and doing beautifully, but after a year of therapy, medication, and a 504 plan. (We had our fall conference on Monday and the teacher is very, very pleased with DC's work academically, and really understands the 2E-nature of kids, including those with ADHD.) We are also in the midst of eval with younger DC who is in 2nd grade and has already been diagnosed with ADHD, and the fall conference with that teacher was markedly similar to older DC's comments. I echo the PPs suggestions about reading all you can in addition to seeking help from the evaluator. The FCPS Parent Resource Center has some great workshops, as does CHADD (as indicated by PPs). Good luck![/quote]
