[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m confused why you are doing this to your child, his teachers and his peers. It’s incredibly selfish and pointless and I’m sure medication has been on the table for a long time. So unfair to everyone involved.[/quote] In OP’s defense it sounds like she has gotten extremely poor advice on appropriate behavioral interventions to get to this point. But yeah, even I (who have a documented record of believing kids are overmedicated!) would be fully in favor of trying meds - as long as OP understands the limitations. They are highly effective for disruptive motor behaviors, but you’ll still need to make sure he is learning. [/quote] What behavioral interventions should be implemented?[/quote] A behavioral plan that rewards on task and in seat behavior rather than letting him get up and wander around. Walking around in the back of the classroom is not an appropriate accomodation for a 4th grader. [/quote]
