My son was diagnosed with ADHD when his teacher sent a note home saying that he does his work real fast and then does something else, more fun. She suggested he may be ADHD and I should go get him tested. I did, he was, the Dr wanted to medicate him, we did , I didn't like how it made him, so we took him off it, I know I have told this before, We did all the home grown, homemade food, no perseveres and it worked. We also went back to the teacher and had a polite discussion with her and suggested to her that she has things for him to do when he finished his work. She did, it changed my son's attitude. He didn't want to go to school, now he did. I bless that teacher to this day for her ability to think out of the box. That was 30 years ago.
