I, too, would avoid those drugs in a heartbeat. I only said that because I know that there are teachers who recommend it to parents. My best friend's son happened to be a little on the hyper side and he still is but he is a boy with a lot of energy.

Keeping her active is key. Too bad swimming is not a year round thing. It is great exercise and it relaxes you.
