[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This question makes no sense to me. Prepping will not necessarily help a kid with ADHD the point is that they can't focus during the test and no prep will help with that. Medication is the most helpful thing for most with ADHD. If you are worried it is impacting your child, medication not prepping and stressing them out is the choice in my opinion.[/quote]

If the kid has a hard time focusing, it may help to know what’s coming, in general terms, and relax and help themselves focus.

Everyone will lose focus if a task proves undoable. The point is how much will preping help a person continue to try?[/quote]

This is another post that shows you don't have a clue about ADHD.[/quote]

If they are talking about their kid and not some hypothetical, I'm sad for that kid and all the self-esteem/anxiety issues they will likely develop or have developed. [/quote]

So do you suggest meditation?

Do you know the long term effects of medication?

Heart disease
High blood pressure
Seizure
Irregular heartbeat
Abuse and addiction
Skin discolorations

You are more inclined to have those effects so you get a better performance, but you’re against prepping for better performance?!

I can play Google too. https://www.thetribune.ca/sci-tech/webmd-is-not-all-its-cracked-up-to-be-08112022/

I could also post numerous peer reviewed studies that show there are no proven long term side effects of medication but I'm not about getting into a citation war w/you. Go on with your anti-medication nuttery and allow your child to suffer. [/quote]
