[QUOTE="jem3, post: 260115, member: 7135"] Thanks for the welcome! What kind of doctor diagnosed your difficult child's ADHD? his pediatrician did. In Kinder, the teacher and school set up a meeting with us to discuss getting him evaluated. The pedi diagnosed his ADHD. Has your difficult child ever been evaluated by a developmental pediatrician or neuropsychologist? not sure what a developmental pedi is - but he's never been evaluated by a neuropsychologist. Besides math, how does in he do academically in school? he has always done very well in school, academically. he's is extremely bright. this advanced math is challenging him, which I think is good but he is getting frustrated because he is used to having things come naturally for him. This is what we fear will be a problem next year as 3rd grade becomes more difficult. Does he play well with same-age peers outside of school? He does. He can be a little rough with kids his own age - boy stuff, never mean or aggressive. We have been working on "keeping our hands to ourself" since he came home and it's starting to sink in. On younger kids - he is EXTREMELY gentle and kind. Other parents are always telling me how sweet he is to their child (babies and toddlers) Any sensory issues (sensitivity to clothing tags, loud noises, food textures, etc?) Not that I can think of. He is very easy going and one of the best eaters that I've ever seen in a kid. Any speech or developmental delays? No, not at all. See, on paper he sounds great!:happy: Thanks for the welcome and any advice, would be greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
