[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]9 so third grade right? Let me tell you if he is well liked now, [b]that won't last[/b].  By 4th grade those class clown behaviors that seem funny in 2nd grade start to get really annoying as most boys start to grow out of those behaviors and the adhd kids don't.  There was a kid in my sons class that the boys started hating so much at that age because he kept touching them and interrupting and doing silly things to get attention.  Also playground sports become important and he [b]will be [/b]ostracized there too because he won't be able to keep up and [b]will do [/b]things to annoy the other boys like grab the ball and run away.

I bet every parent on here who has chosen to medicate has a story to tell about a sobbing child recounting some playground moment that just broke that parents heart and contributed to the decision to try meds. [/quote]

Are you suggesting medicating a child in advance of a social problem? Children, even those with ADD, grow and change too, often without medication. [/quote]
