Mrs. Tbrs I am sure your child is needing of the meds. However, my lil sis was a 1st grade teacher, my wife taugt HS, my brother-in-law teaches special ed (yaaay!) in HS, and my father is on the School board, and I can say with all due honesty that a kid getting the right diagnosis for the situation is rare... I am certain that ADHD is over diagnosed Im sure you are right. Adhd is overly diagnosed especially in young boys. The first dr told me that my son has no fine motor skills. Im not sure I have meet a bot or man that does. The meds worry me because they do take a toll on the liver,and hes still young.
