adhd

At first I cannot accepted when my son diagnosed with adhd 3 year ago.But I told myself I must do something for his future and his health development.Whenever he missed his medicine, sure something is bound to happen.complaint from school and his studies.I Think with the medication and understanding teacher the kids will be more willing to listen and pay more attention in class.As parent we must always comunicate with his/her form teacher as to monitor his/her well being in scholl.I hope you have confidence when you put him back in scholl.Good luck

Schools are not medical personell, and have no business diagnosing children.With anything. They should even be very cautious of suggesting a medical diagnosis, it is not their area of expertise.The best diagnosis can be made through psychological counselling and screening, accompanies by medical support. That being said, I will comment that the right medication, for the right student, can be the right thing to do. I have seen it happen both ways. There are a number of different meds that supposedly work for adhd. On your part, if home schooling leads to better organizational skills, and getting more sleep, and being responsive to dietary needs, then it makes sense to do so. I think how the school views adhd varies from one location to another. I know that the schools usually get more state and federal moneys for special needs kids. It does not always add up to a plus, though, if they have to use a lot of resources. Good luck. I would not have homeschooled, my kids passed up my knowledge base by about sixth grade.

Alot of the times schools do this so they can put the child in a special class.So it basically turns out to be a money issue because they get extra money for every child they enroll in the special class.I believe that some children do have attention problems but Im not sure I believe in medicating them for it.I myself was put on adderall when i was 17 which is alot later then most kids and it didnt do a thing to me but make me nervous and sick feeling.I wouldnt want my child to have to ever go through that.

adhd or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is a disorder of preschoolers or early school children which is manifested by their inability to control their behavior or pay attention. i think most of the preschoolers and kids at that age are like that, mostly these kids are inattentive hyperactive and impulsive and it is normal for their age but at a low level. iff your child however manifests these symptoms for more than a month or for long period of time then he may as well have adhd. is the behavior of you child excessive and long term?. is he always like that or depending on the situation he is in?. may i ask you what medications are prescribed by the school to your son?. and who in the school of your son diagnosed him?. is he/she a nurse?, doctor?, midwife or what?. i think that you should check a professional to really know if your son is suffering from adhd.
