a lot of people with this diagnosis are actually indigo children - have you considered this.

that's interesting to know, mike. my 11 year old daughter, who i have suspected for a while may well be an indigo child, was diagnosed with adhd when she was 6.

i had her on ritalin for a short period of time as her teachers were always complaining about her. although it did help her focus and it did change her behaviour, i did not like the idea of medicating her just so that she would be like everybody else and make the teacher's life easier and so i discontinued it after about six months.

although it takes a lot of patience to help her with her homework at times, i believe that she should be, must be, who she is meant to be and not a medicated conformist.
