[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, no, my son was removed from school in 2nd grade and didnt return full time until we foumd the right meds. [b]But in general puberty does make kids with adhd chill a bit.[/b] So even those unmedicated tend to mature and fit in by middle school. Their brains just take longer to get there and the medication helps in the meantime. You have to consider how much damage you cause along the way to see if it's worthwhile. After medication my son is a gifted and well liked student, academically high acheiving, on multiple sports teams, has a ton of friends and loves life. Without meds he wouldn't have been successful. We are now looking at cutting back meds to see if he has matured and learned enough coping skills with age. I am grateful he had what he needed to get where he is.[/quote] NOT in girls[/quote]
