[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my kid! I think his dad was the same way (even though he claims he wasn't), because his dad talked WAY more than I wanted when we first started dating. I think both of them have ADHD (neither has been tested), but the productive, driven-by-a-motor kind. I put my son in an advanced STEM class (to tired out his brain) and 1 or 2 sport activities per season (to tire out his body) and that has helped a lot. We also had to shut him down at some points during age 5-7. He needs to learn appropriate amounts and times to talk! Healthy eating, plenty of sleep and rest, and very minimal screen time also help.[/quote] ^ I forgot to mention that he did 1/2 day preschool, so by kindergarten he knew appropriate behavior during the school day. He's not gotten in trouble for talking, and he does raise his hand. If your kid is 5, these are things you should really be working hard on this year before K/1st grade school expectations.[/quote]
