[QUOTE="Critter Lover, post: 212928, member: 6297"] It is very hard to get a child with ADHD to sit down to do anything in a length of time. I was always told to not give them more than a 1/2 hour assignment since you will lose their focus after that and without medications as you have said.....he is probably having trouble filtering out all the noises that could be going on it your house or outside your house. It could be as little as the refridgerator running which would not bother the everyday person that does not have it but they do have trouble filtering noise. I did find that when my son had the ADHD like behavior that he thoroughly enjoyed the Reader Rabbit programs. Do not know if you want to explore that or not but it asks them questions about a story that they just read with the help of the program. This is just a thought and every child is different in what will work for them and what will not. I do wish you the best of luck in finding what will help him. [/QUOTE]
