[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 302390, member: 805"] Thanks everyone for all your responses! You can see why I was torn in this. Torn between wanting him to have a positive start to the school year and between allowing him to make a choice and see where it leads. You know, I think I will talk to difficult child today and let him know I have thought about our conversation. I'll let him know that if he really feels that he would like to start school without the medication then that's what we'll do. But, if at any point he feels he is not able to stay focused in the classroom or his 1:1 reports the same, we need to revisit the medication issue. I'm going to call his psychiatrist today. I still have the mail in rx for 40mg that we got in June. I'm going to ask if I can come and pick up a rx for 30 20mg pills. Perhaps difficult child could trial 1/2 his usual dosage should he need medications. Again, thanks for all your responses. I have to say that difficult child has always been medication compliant. In all the years he's been on medication - since fall of 2003 - he's not once refused to take his medicine. I think that's one of the reasons I give this request such consideration. Again, thanks - I'll keep you posted! Sharon [/QUOTE]
