[quote=Anonymous]Do not jump to meds over one phone call when they made him sick.  I’m a HS teacher and I have a kid with ADHD so I have a lot of experience here.  Meds are not a magic cure.

He needs to strategies to help manage his ADHD, which he will have for life.  He will grow and mature and it may get easier but he can put some things in place, with your help and the help of his teachers.

We all know the IEP isn’t the perfect fix either.  If he’s done early, can he ask to use the bathroom to just have a min to get up and move?  Then come back and do something else?  For my son, the back of the room was always the best place.

If he was in front, he was always turning around trying to see what was happening behind him constantly.  And then he would start talking when he turned his back to the front.   In the back he could see the entire room at all times and constantly be seeing everyone, which seemed to help his nosey self!

He’s a senior now but we got a LOT of calls up until he was 16.  [/quote]
