[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m PP and should add my son is 15 as well. He used to resist more, but doesn’t now. We have held the line and not budged. We said we will continue to revisit over time, but his brain had less dopamine than other brains and he needs it especially now. Kids who are not medicated with ADHD are more likely to commit self harm, get in came accidents and generally make poorer decisions. The teens years are especially risky. They are impulsive and 2-3 years behind in maturity. It’s real, so again in our house, meds are an on-going discussion with us, him and the Psych but what ever is prescribed at the time is taken. Not up for negotiation [/quote] wow, parent of the year. using misinformation and scare tactics to force your child to take a medication that isn't actually required for their immediate health. honestly reading this made me want to vomit.
