[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not about to lecture you - my kid's isn't nearly "severe" and you have to do what you have to do, but I'm curious if you've tried extreme diet modification first?  No sucrose, no corn syrup, no artificial dyes, nothing but protein in the morning, add a lot of fish oil.

I would TRY before I moved to the drugs.  What's to lose?

A[b] friend of mine who is in the neuro-industry says they are coming out with a study in the next 6-12 months that will highlight a clear detriment to receiving ADHD med at an early age. [/b][/quote]

Thanks for dropping a bomb.  What does that mean?  What is the "neuro-industry?"  Does your friend work for a drug company or more on the natural side of things?  What is an "early age?"

I know you meant to be helpful, but it's not helpful to say that and not say more.  A lot of us have kids on ADHD meds and we worry about it.  I'm sure any of us would use diet if it worked for our kids, but it doesn't work for every kid (and certainly not mine).[/quote]
