[quote=Anonymous]Had a dear friend whose son clearly had some issues, probably ADHD. She swore she would never medicate him, that was poison, would artificially change him, etc. Child was constantly in trouble, disliked by other kids and adults. Wouldn’t listen to directions, acted out when corrected or with attempts to redirect or control his behavior. Got his driving license, killed himself when lost control and drove into a tree head on before he was out of high school. Would have been far better to have him in early diagnosis/treatment - he would have had a better quality life, kids would have liked playing with him, adults would have enjoyed his company. He might still be alive. You can’t wish this away, or pretend it away - it’s your job as a parent to act in your child’s best interest. Neglecting medical and emotional needs is neglect, plain and simple. Help him to have a better quality of life by having him evaluated and listening to medical advice/counsel. [/quote]
