[quote=Anonymous]My answer would be that if your child is doing okay in school and life without them, they probably don’t need them at this point. My very young son has trouble staying on task, focusing on directions and learning, and gets overstimulated in busy environments. I know that he needs medication as his under vigilance and impulsivity impeded his ability to learn and interact, and thereby affects his self esteem. You can do a neuropsych assessment and see what a professional recommendation would be. Also, in 4th grade, your daughter might be able to give you a batter indication of how she feels about things - does she feel like she can’t focus like her peers?[/quote]
