My typical day with my ADD son

My  son has been without his Ritalin since school started a week ago. Homework has been a struggle and my husband and I are almost in tears. Parenting a child with ADD is really a calling to be embraced instead of fighting it. Thanks to the Lord though as his doctor is back and we have his script for medication, which he will start to take tomorrow. A lot has been written on the net about medicating kids with ADD, but all I can say is that my husband and I made the right choice for our son, we gave him life, a future with possibilities and confidence.  I remember his tears, my tears and my husband trying to mediate. All this was before we decided to seek medical help for him. I wish somehow I could be of help to parents with kids who have this condition. I'll write more about this in another blog. All I can say for now is to seek help from medical professionals as opposed to "hearsay or internet" doctors. None of the scary side effects I read about affected my son.

I found this book on Amazon, we'll probably help a million times
