[quote=Anonymous]I would mention it but don't press it. DS had had very negative reactions from coaches when I didn't disclose the diagnosis "looks like he doesn't want to be here" etc. He's young and still navigating his disability. I think we can expect a certain amount of grace from our fellow humans even if he isn't entitled to an accommodation like at school. The coach may be very familiar with adhd- tons of athletes have adhd. If not, here's their opportunity to learn a little. Oh, also, Michael Phelps has ADHD for the poster above who feels compelled to chime in with ignorant remarks.[/quote]
