[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally, I think that often with boys at that age, ADHD is over diagnosed - before everyone flames me, I am not saying that ADHD doesn't exist and some kids really do have it BUT he is only 8 - a few decades ago he would have had much more time to move and be active than he does now in school. Since he's borderline AND has the dyslexia diagnosis so will get extra help, I would wait on the ADHD - you can always have him reevaluated in a few years if it becomes a bigger issue. I'm saying that as both an educator and as a parent of 2 SN kids.[/quote] I agree with you 100%.[/quote]
