[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP -- Just a note to send a cyber hug. Our DC with ADHD inattentive (diagnosed in 4th grade) went from being completely miserable, anxious and extremely depressed (even saying the world would be better without him/her) to being a happy middle and (now) high schooler who (mostly) likes school, has friends, and does pretty well. So while not all of the ADHD challenges were solved by a school change (bring bright with inattention is hard -- you get the math easily but make careless errors so conceptually you get an "A" but you get a "B" on your report card!)!), many of them were. A smaller setting where people have time to get to know your strengths can be huge when you are grappling with your areas of challenge. So this is just to say your daughter is SO lucky to have you. You are asking all of the right questions. And it will get better. Be good to yourself; crying about a child is one of the worst feelings in the world. Big hugs. [/quote] PP - would you mind sharing the school you sent your child to? You DC sounds so much like my DC. Thank you.[/quote]
