[QUOTE="Malika, post: 522518, member: 11227"] Well, although I don't want to hijack this thread - which is about someone feeling that there is more going on than ADHD for her son and not being heard - I am actually glad, in a way, that I am in France with a probably ADHD child. Because... I am having to fight to some degree to get a diagnosis and absolutely nobody yet has seriously proposed giving him any form of medication. This means that when and if I do get a diagnosis and am reflecting on the "whether or not to medicate" dilemma, I will be fairly certain that a diagnosis hasn't been given lightly and medication is not being proposed too early. Personally I prefer this way round than diagnosis and medication too readily given. What I do envy about the States, though, is all the panoply of sophisticated evaluations and testing you have there, which absolutely leaves France in the shade... [/QUOTE]
