[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an elementary kid with classic ADHD-combined (inattentive and hyperactive). Took me a few years but recently realized my high schooler has ADD. Takes her hours to complete anything but no flags were raised early on because she is a good student and eventually gets it done, and done well. But yes, we are talking HOURS to accomplish an hourlong task. Vyvanse has helped a lot but if she's working late into the evening, we run into the same stuff.[/quote] Your daughter may need a late afternoon dose of medication to get her through the homework hours in the evening. You should talk to her doctor. My kids, who both have ADHD, needed an afternoon boost because they take a dose early in the morning and by the afternoon it starts to taper off and their concentration was diminished.[/quote]
