[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry OP. I know how it feels. My DD hasn’t necessarily been kicked out of activities but essentially can not function when there. Different issues but same feeling of disappointment, rejection and hopelessness. After a disastrous year, we cancelled all camps and are focusing on recharging, therapy, and getting meds right. We have babysitter/summer nanny lined up who has special needs experience. My 2 cents is that we over program our children and do so younger and younger. On one hand we want them to be exposed to a lot and those of us with ADHDers want to wear them out— but also, they don’t get to learn how to regulate on their own and deal with unstructured time which generally leads to them finding something they are really interested in. Good luck. Your son is young. Reframe your mindset and slow your roll. Eventually it will even out. I found age 8 is a huge leap in maturity - hopefully you will see this in a few years. [/quote]
