[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son's favorite teacher (science!) said she really enjoys working with him because he's so dedicated to the subject and helping others -- I don't think she was just sugar coating it -- but also bluntly told us he's a joker who loves to socialize with everyone and can distract kids when he finishes early and that the classroom dynamic is full of kids who are all friends. He had been on adhd medication but it made him very sick to his stomach. Just brought this up to DS and he denies that he does this behavior. Is next stop with his pedi again? He reacted terribly to adhd meds before, so I'm not sure the best next step. [/quote]

No, the next stop is a firm disciplinary talk from mom and dad that he'd better straighten himself out and that you do not want to get a report like this again.

I think there's a big pharma shill on here always pushing pharma drugs. Perhaps could be a local shrink also pushing that angle. [/quote]

It’s also a lot easier to drug your kid than be the grown-up in the room.

Just like it’s easier to hand a kid a phone than teach restaurant manners. [/quote]
