[quote=Anonymous]The thing with ADHD is that they have essentially a learning disability around time management and organization. Would you punish your dyslexic child for reading slowly and making mistakes? No, you would help them put supports in place that help them cope with a disability, and expect a certain failure rate. Kids with ADHD experience "natural consequences" ALL THE TIME. They learn to live with much more friction as a result of being "different," and basically become resigned to a suckier life. But do get them on medication if they aren't already.[/quote]
