Well, we got the ADHD meds for Derek about 6 weeks ago...a little bit of difference, but not a lot...and he has been having such butthead trouble staying on task in school and following rules. We are starting a different kind of meds starting today..he seems a bit mellower...but...the jury is out for a few weeks on entire behavior. So this is how you work with ADHD. You try different meds/doseage until you find the right ones/doseage. Educate youself on the entire condition and work with it everyday.
He still has such a long way to go regarding minding rules AND not arguing with adults..it IS way frustrating. The first three years of his life he didn't get what he should have as far as structure and consistancy...it is making his years of 3 1/2 to present time so hard. He is such a sweet, smart, creative and loving boy thank God. He is growing so much in his language and ability everyday. He talks like a "little adult" at times and still says the most funniest things. Lets hope school next week goes better. We are still so thankful to have Jenny & Nathan Fields as our daycare family. They are the best!
