She can't handle the fact that he isn't "perfect". She "diagnosed" him last week with ADHD and wants to put him on meds. For him of course. Anyway, we had a doctor appointment scheduled for Friday, but now with this she just wants me to ask to schedule a test tomorrow when I take him in for the ear. And to make sure to tell the doctor how long this has been going on(years) and how it's gotten worse. I am so ready to puke right now. I suppose, shoving pills down his throat would be much easier than diciplining an active 8 year old. I have no respect for that monster. She is completely dead to me.
Tell the doctor your concerns that she is trying to medicate him as opposed to actually spending time with him and directing him like a mother SHOULD. Have him tested. Deal with the results. Prepare yourself for either outcome and f*ck her!
She brings out the best in me... My mouth has been getting me in trouble since 7am!
Well now hopefully snakesonafrigginplane comes back and posts some more....then I can kick him around a little
I think the teacher is on the same page as I am, and I guess they need her input before any kind of diagnosis is made. So that's cool.
Who's snakesonafriggenplane? Something I missed?
I don't care what you think, as long as it's about me.
As a teacher...let me tell you that to actually get an accurate ADHD diagnosis is pretty hard. His teachers will have to fill out forms, they will test him (they tested my sonfora totally of 4 hours) and they will come back with suggestions.
I took Nick to a center that specializes in pediatrics and one that encouraged non-medication.
I would suggest finding a clinic like that close to you.
(And for mice, use peanut butter on the traps!!!:) )
Pulled out 3 of them little b@$t@rd$ so far. Ehhhh. I hate friggen mice.
I need your email addy fig, either post or get mine off board from Lis or Amy or someone. I want a teachers perspective.
I don't care what you think, as long as it's about me.

almost like the time he got his head caught in the wrought iron railing and my mom had to crisco his head to get it unstuck and my dad asked what he did during the day and he stuck it through the railing again and then my mom threw the newspaper at my dad and said he could never ask that question again
