My son was recently diagnosed with ADD without Hyperactivity. The poor kid has been suffering in school and I've been watching this bright little boy struggle with reading and working independently. The best word to describe my son is scattered. He just can't gather himself together sometimes.
We started him on a medication trial and he was given a 504 plan in school. So far I have seen a big difference in him, but I want to do more.
Any Dad's out there with ADD/ADHD kids? I'd love to hear about any strategies you do with your kids that have seemed to help. I know I'm not alone, but sometimes you can't help but feel that way....especially since doctors and schools seem more comfortable dealing with my wife than they do with me.
