Oh, the action around here!
Does your school have more than one 1st grade class? Maybe there is another teacher that has more "patience" or has better knowledge on how to handle him.
I am a mother of 12 years of experience with this my daughter was doing the exact same thing. This year she has finally overcome she is now a sophmore in high school. I can tell you this meds did nothing for her. He does not need special ed he nee...
I raised a son that is now 32 and still sometimes struggles with his ADHD. We tried meds...he hated it. We tried modifying his diet...didn't see alot of improvement. We tried special ed. at first the teacher confronted him and i went and had a hea...
I used to work as a social worker with ADHD kids, and first of all ODD and ADHD is so overdiagnosed. They like to lable children with this. I would strongly suggest the diet. Make sure he has protien and not sugar before school. I believe the diet...

Stephanie, my heart really goes out to you. I hear how frustrated and scared you must be. Don't give up! I help parents in exactly your situation to know what to do so things don't keep escalating. Believe it or not, your son's behavior makes perf...
Stephanie,
My son was very similar to yours, and the first thing I want to tell you is that now, at 15, my son is an amazing person. So first off, DON'T GIVE UP HOPE!! Every kid is different. My son kicked his kindergarten teacher repeatedly in t...
Hi! What a great question! So many parents struggle with this very issue. I am a counselor, working with Kindergarten thru 8th grade. I know how frustrating it can be when the school reports behaviors that you just aren't seeing at home. If you're...
My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD, and we were offered the medication option, and chose to pursue the diagnosis a bit with a neuropsychologist. She tested my daughter and said, yes, she has ADHD, but it is stress-induced. The school is causing t...
My 13 yr old daughter has always struggled in school on a day to day basis despite scoring in top 1-3% on every standardized test she has ever taken.We have chosen to accept that grades are not a measure of ones learning.My husband has dyslexia an...

I was in denial that my daughter was ADD/ADHD. I felt this was completely over diagnosed and a waste of my time to think about it. I tried modifying her diet, etc and nothing worked. I was so ready to crawl into a corner and cry because I couldn't...
I also know the feeling. My son has tourettes, odd, and adhd- He is now 14, in 9th Grade and not on meds. But, I can tell you he was on meds for several years and they did help! He has outgrown some of his issues and more importantly, he has learn...
I understand your frustration-seriously, I do.
If academics are too high, legally, special education is NOT an option. (I'm a special ed teacher..) There needs to be a 2 standard deviation gap between his scores and where they should be. If he's ...
Hello!
You probably dont want to hear this, but not minding authority figures is not caused by odd or adhd.
That behavior is called mimicking his parents, children are little tape recorders/video recorders of
all that they see us doing and saying ...

- A little about yourself...
- I am a single mother of two, i work a lot and dedicate any other time to my children..I have joined because i often find myself talking to others who tend to have bad suggestions, people who think they are helping me but really aren't. I wasn't aware that there are so many out there as myself. My son has had ODD and ADHD for 21/2 years now he is 6 and was recently diagnosed with them. He has been kicked out of 5 schools and just started 1st grade. He was in private school and was told he needed help and they could not help him so i have turned to the public school districts so i just want to meet parents who could would like to chat and anyone who has any ideas .
