[QUOTE="Andy, post: 197153, member: 5096"] I am sorry - difficult child's teacher is trying to be supportive but came about it all wrong with this. I hate when people say, "You should ......." instead of, "I know you are facing hard decisions, here is another option you may or may not want to consider." then truly leave the decisions up to you. I find a, "We have considered our options and are going to try this." should be good enough response. You don't need anymore doubts. This is HARD. And, we know that different medications are different for each kid. I don't tell a lot of people that difficult child is on Prozac because I know I will get that judgemental, "Why? That is not tested for kids. Do you KNOW what that can do to a kid? ........" Even though he has been on it for less than a year and anyone with any brain can SEE that for him it is the RIGHT medication I would still get those judgemental comments. You continue to follow your own intuition. You know difficult child better than anyone. Good luck with this new medication - I hope it does work. [/QUOTE]
