[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 99033, member: 1991"] We are among those parents who medicated a child of three years old. difficult child 3 was only three when he was started on stimulants (dexamphetamine). And it worked. it was like magic. The problem was far, far more than a hyperactive, impulsive child. His mind was such a whirl he couldn't even settle to learn even the most basic communication. He had a vocabulary composed chiefly of nouns he had learnt to read, from labels. easy child was away for a week at camp when he started medications; when she returned she said, in amazement, "He's speaking in full sentences!" That said, I do not endorse the random medicating of very young children. I only want to say, we did it with difficult child 3, and do not regret it for an instant. Sometimes it's not such a bad idea. But it really does depend on the individual and really does need to be very carefully considered. It certainly shouldn't be a routine thing. Marg [/QUOTE]
