I can totally relate...I too am questioning the meds thing because if it comes up, I want to do what is right for my boy and not just what I feel. Hard job when your job as a mother is to nurture and protect!
Please don't be anxious about the testing. The testing will help identify ways the teachers can help him. Just think of it the way you would if your pediatrician wanted to test him for strep throat or an ear infection. Once you pinpoint the cause of a problem, it makes it easier to fix. And if medication is the answer, please don't be discouraged. With an accurate diagnosis and carefully monitored levels of the appropriate meds, I've seen amazing things happen. Keep the faith, and know that there are many people wishing the best for you and your dear little boy. Please keep me posted!
Thank you for your support and advice, keep me updated on your son, I will keep you both in my prayers, This is going to be a long journey for us both but we will get through it and its great to talk to someone else that knows what I'm going through. Thanks!!
It feels so good to have others who understand and care-thanks!
my child has ADD and it has just been addressed. He has started med. He has such an eagerness to learn..worried about that being dampened if that does not get corrected soon
