[quote=Anonymous]I think you need to meet with the psychiatrist and ask the psychiatrist to listen to all of the boy’s concerns and explain how the medication works and about the growth part. You also need to get him an executive functioning coach to help him with assignments. He may have to learn on his own that being on meds will make things much easier. I’d also take him to visit some colleges now, from a four-year college to a community college, so that he can see the end game once he has a high school diploma. I’d keep strict limits on screen time and what’s on his phone, as it’s hard for people with ADHD to manage screens. [/quote]
