[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6, 7 is too young. Sixth-grade is probably the best time for meds unless she is unsafe or is failing school, otherwise, 504 is the best option! [/quote] OP - I am a doctor and please do not listen to these folks with no expertise. Talk to your doctors about the right steps for your child. Based on medical guidelines on how best to care for kids with ADHD and looking at long term benefits and risks, medication is absolutely appropriate for symptomatic school-age kids. But don’t believe me either- I’m a stranger on an anonymous board. Talk to people who know the data and the science and the true safety. [/quote] She met with ONE doctor.[/quote]
