[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - the reason our therapist hasn’t indicated it was ADHD is that DD has no trouble concentrating. She does great and school, comes home and immediately does her homework, has never once not studied for a test, is very organized. Not sure if that is just masking a problem or not.

Will look into the SPACE therapy. [/quote]

I think you are looking for problems where there aren’t any.  
It sounds like you have a very high functioning kid whose outbursts don’t really affect her life significantly in any way (doesn’t have them at school or around friends), and you already have her in therapy.

13:25 here. I think people can be outwardly hugh functioning and inwardly an anxious mess. The motivation that gets her to be high functioning in those ways may be fear of failure, just like the fear of failure w.r.t. to hee hair.

It's just coming out differently because even hard schoolwork at age 9 can usually be made easy by following a formula if sitting down and practicing enough (even if more than mom and sister had to). But her hair is not cooperating with her best efforts like the schoolwork does.[/quote]
