[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wanted to mention that in 6th, 7th and 8th grade my DD's friend group changed a lot, which I think is typical in middle school. But there were some new faces that I distinctly remember had struggled when they were younger and have ADHD. I think it gets better when they're older and can regulate a bit more, or pick up on social cues more. [/quote] +1 My kid struggled a lot in 5th and 6th. He was really immature and annoying - his medication had worn off in the afternoons/evenings. Many of his long-time friendships fizzled out. In 7th and 8th, he matured a lot and started picking up on social cues and has been building up a new group of friends. He still struggles a bit but it's getting better. [/quote] Our DS is in 7th now and were starting to see this alot more. It's actually astonishing how much better he is at all of it--like you said, not perfect but just crazy the difference between 6th and 7th![/quote]
