[QUOTE="Malika, post: 607154, member: 11227"] Confused... to me, your son sounds like straight up ADHD. This is how it manifests, much of the time. This kind of behaviour in the context of ADHD is what I have read about time and again, in either direct anectodal evidence or more scientific literature. I'd be so fascinated to meet your son... in some ways he sounds much like J. Leaving places he wants to be (any place where he is enjoying the activity or playing with other kids) is THE big meltdown area with him. Like yours, he usually accepts time warnings though usually they have to be renegotiated several times before he will accept to leave. Of course the distraction is the ADD/ADHD. That is it. All the time. Concentration is not maintained but constantly flits to the next thing that comes onto the horizon. As I have read it being described, ADHD kids are always drawn to the brightest light... it's very true. The brightest light is usually other kids, televisions, screens of any kind, etc. How is your son otherwise? Can you give us a description of his personality, how he interacts with others? [/QUOTE]
