[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you not see it at home? Can he follow multiple step directions? Can he focus on listening to a book? [/quote] Yes, he can focus on a book. He isn't hyperactive at all, just inattentive, like she will be telling the class something and he's off doing his own thing. It's the same with soccer. He sticks out like a sore thumb because he's laying down or playing in the dirt, not listening. The teacher wants to meet and discuss this today. So it hasn't gotten better. Let's say he is ADD, what do I do? Get him diagnosed and give him meds? Seems so young to be giving meds. I am still weary of the add diagnosis places because I feel like any five year old boy that goes in they will say has ADD.[/quote]
