[QUOTE="Don R, post: 418967, member: 11635"] Doctors and teachers have a tendency to label kids who do not fit in their definition of a normal kid. I just had the experience with my 8 year old son. Even though ADHD and other conditions are real in a sense that these kids do not behave like the others I recommend that you be very cautious with prescription medicine. They have nasty side effects. What I have learned is that regardless of the condition, kids who act up are just communicating their inability to resolve a problem. AS parents we can help them by guiding them toward learning how to manage these situtations because as they grow older they will need to do it without our help. Have you looked into behavior modification programs for kids? [/QUOTE]
