[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does ADHD have to do with anything? As a person with ADHD, I was someone who always wanted different things. if they're picky eaters that's because they're picky eaters, not because of ADHD.[/quote]

I disagree... Kids with ADHD are known to 1) be less hungry when on meds due to appetite suppression 2) want to carb load when the meds wear off and 3) be more prone to want to eat the same things over and over. [/quote]

Considering the traits of ADHD are impulsivity, and I have ADHD and can tell you impulsive eating is a real problem, I think you just have a kid with ADHD who also for other reasons has been trained up as a picky eater.[/quote]
