Thirty seconds well used, is a lifetime!” Sat, 13 Mar 2010 00:10:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Rocky Moreno http://blog.rockamababy.com/2009/03/31/my-daughter/#comment-47 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 04:34:33 +0000 http://blog.rockamababy.com/2009/03/my-daughter/#comment-47 I totally understand where your coming from. While my son doesn’t have ADD, the teachers tried to push it on him, and in the end we only gave a couple of the Adderall pills one week and after that we stopped because he said to me one day when I asked him what he did on lunch, he said “Nothing, I just sit and stare. I see my friends and I want to play in my mind but my body won’t let me”, that did it. We stopped meds and worked with him on being successful in school. We didn’t tell the teachers we stopped the meds, and guess what, in the end they all praised the meds for his success! Main difference with my son and your daughter, he wasn’t demonstrating any true ADD behavior, he just had a teacher who wanted puppets instead of kids. We don’t take meds easily, in fact we very rarily ever have prescriptions or medicine at all. I feel yah.

I’m so happy that it’s working out for your daughter. All my best 8)
