Aiden went for an evaluation a few weeks ago and it turns out that he inherited his father's ADHD. Unfortunately, Ryan never outgrew his, so it's likely Aiden won't either. Aiden's been having problems with wanting to not go to preschool in the mornings (he only goes until noon). Today i found out why. He gets time outs ALOT for hitting the other kids and having virtually no attention span. All he wants to do is run around and play.
I dunno what to do. I've never dealt with anything like this before. He's such a good sweet boy at home that loves hugs and cuddling. I'm really concerned but I don't know what to do to help him. I know i studied psychology but I have no experience dealing with ADHD except for what i see in Ryan.
I have a meeting today with his service coordinator, she's going to go to his school and work with him with the ADHD and do behavioral therapy to help him with his attention span. He's probably going to need to go on medication when he starts real school because they just won't put up with this kind of thing there.
Any suggestions anyone?
