Yes keep her active. Also watch her diet and sugar intake. Some kids are just more active and easily distracted. I would do some research online to see what would be the best strategy with your D without drugs.

I use to refer to my s19 as my wild child when he grew up. Every year I had to meet with his teachers and talk about this. This continued through high school.

I just plugged away, and s19 is awesome now. Still a bit hyper, but I accept that as his personality. He amazes me though with his smarts and talent. Drugs would have changed him from his true self.
