[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the parent of an ADHD child, who is also AAP, I can tell you that one of the common characteristics of this condition (which is always hard to definitively diagnose, because there is always a subjective component to the analysis) is low processing speed (on WISC) paired with exceptionally high perceptive reasoning and/or verbal comprehension (the gifted part). This can be a devastating and misunderstood combo, especially if the gifted ADHD kid goes undiagnosed and lands in an inappropriate gen ed classroom. And by the way, half of these ADHD kids (like my DD) are primarily inattentive type without obvious hyperactivity. They do not disrupt, they space out.[/quote] Excellent post![/quote]
