[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole “punishments don’t matter” business can be a sign of ADHD.[/quote] This. I have a 14 yr old son and his father is not involved in his life. He was the same way before he was diagnosed with ADHD and started taking medication. I hate to say it but I secretly was happy when he started crying after being reprimanded for something he did. Before medication, he operated at 1000% speed so he acted the way you describe. He didn’t care, he just wanted you to stop talking, etc. The medication helped him slow waaaay down so she could actually think before acting and then benefit from discipline. I would start his pediatrician and go from there. Therapy might be in order. [/quote] I agree with this. My dd was on the way to this prior to starting her adhd med. I blame myself, for ears she lived in adhd fog and could not develop and see proper emotional actions and reactions. Therapist said that his is classic adhd, child can't interpret emotions so child fakes it.[/quote]
