[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 523006, member: 11791"] Give that... 70% of kids with ADHD and a Learning Disability (LD) also have Auditory Processing Disorders (APD)... maybe it's lumped in with ADHD? The symptoms sure "look like" ADHD, anyway. Biggest thing to keep an eye on is whether he does significantly better "one-on-one" than in a group setting or where there is background noise. For example... there is a minorly recurrant theme in your posts, around bath time. The sound of water - running, splashing, etc. - is one of the most pervasive white noises... very hard to "listen through". Just tuck it in your brain and watch for it and play with it. APDs are not treated by medications, anyway. It's accommodations mostly, a personal FM system if you can get it. But even being able to explain to a teacher that the student doesn't always "catch" verbal instruction, and the need to follow-up with written, is a huge benefit. [/QUOTE]
