[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 129575, member: 23"] You are a wise mom. Very rarely does ADHD exist alone. A good ADHD resource is [url]https://web.archive.org/web/20061230090127/http://www.schwablearning.org/pdfs/2200_7-barktran.pdf?date=11-14-00[/url] It should be on every ADHDer's parents' "must read" list in my opinion. Re: medications: It's pure luck to get the right medication the first time. Our difficult child started on Ritalin. It was a major problem. We've had good success with Adderall XR. As indicated by someone above, however, there are some kids that just can't take any type of ADHD medication. If you ever need help getting supports and services for your son at school, please visit the Special Education 101 forum on this site. [/QUOTE]
