[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is he losing them?

My son has severe ADHD, yet has never lost anything to date (now he's 17). He cares about his stuff and double checks to see what he has.[/quote]
That’s unusual for a child with ADHD, especially one 10 years younger than your son. Thank your lucky stars.[/quote]

+1 although your son is 17 you don’t seem to understand the nature of adhd very well. Symptoms are different for different kids! [/quote]

PP you replied to. He has SEVERE ADHD. He was diagnosed at 6, but symptoms were there well before that. He has never lost anything.

I can accept this is unusual, but please don't think my kid was diagnosed yesterday. Severe ADHD is apparent very early on, and I thought people knew that - my bad. I mentioned he was 17 now, just to highlight the track record. Of course, I may just have jinxed myself! :-)[/quote]
It’s incredibly unusual for any child to have never lost anything. I have a child who is very organized and conscientious and careful with her belongings, but even she came home from Outdoor Ed without her jacket.[/quote]
