[quote=Anonymous]OP- my son has ADHD and is starting middle school. He does this sort of thing. It's a double whammy of slow processing speed and below average skills in social pragmatics. If you're there, you can say something like "John, I'm counting to five, if you don't stop you can't play fortnight for a week." That's pretty effective- it get his attention and gives him a five second transition time to compensate for slow processing. But what about the times you're not there? Quite honestly, that's why we're considering medication. [/quote]
