[QUOTE="rdland, post: 485460, member: 13272"] Believe me, if I could just not tell them I would. difficult child is the kind of kid that he has to tell everyone and their mother everything! Because of his heart murmur he had to wear a holter monitor for 24 hours to be sure he was ok for stimulants and the day he wore it was not a school day but was parent teacher conference. I do not have any one to watch him so he came with me. We did not even get inside the building before he started lifting his shirt to show people. I may not say anything but I am sure he will. Whatever with them. They will just have to deal with it. So he did not have one episode like he had the last few days. As I mentioned in earlier post he seemed like he was going to start but I calmly talked him thru it. I am even more certain it was the medications. Complete, huge change in him! He also reinforced for husband that he STILL needs some type of medications as he was seriously bouncing off the walls this evening. You can just see his mind racing and he goes from one topic to the next and the next. He was interrupting when husband and I talk too which was how he was before medications. He could not sit still at all! husband took him to dinner just the 2 of them and when they got home husband was exhausted from all of it. He had started questioning if difficult child really needs medications the last couple days but got a good reminder today why we started! I am concerned he will do something Monday to get suspended again because he acts up a lot more at school. He has not been suspended since the para was put with him every day. She really is amazing and does great with him. We are very lucky to have her. Hopefully she can redirect him enough or take him out of the class if needed to prevent him from getting suspended. I would rather take the chance instead of giving him Vyvanse again for school! [/QUOTE]
