[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 551535, member: 11791"] JMO... but I'd be getting her tested for all the things that are frequently co-morbid with ADD... LDs are part of that. Add to it... half the kids with ADD also have Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) (whether or not you can get the formal diagnosis, getting an Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation is useful). And then, 70% of the kids with ADD and a Learning Disability (LD), also have some form of Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) (there's a good recent thread on what some of the APDs are) It could be some combo of all of the above. We found that Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) and Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) without the right accommodations and interventions (no medications for either) resulted in a brain so tired that "learning" became difficult... get good accommodations and interventions, and a whole new world opens up.
