I think my 21 month old may have ADD or ADHD. Anyone with this kind of experience to offer advice?

First of all he runs around like crazy. All the time. If he’s awake he’s running around. He’s also got a habit of climbing everything. I mean people, tables, chairs, on the counters, dishwasher, stove, he love to climb and I’m afraid he’s going to get hurt. Not only does he like to climb but he likes to jump. He will just get on the bed and jump in the floor. He will laugh and do it again. I can’t keep him interested i anything more than 5 minutes. He won’t watch tv, he won’t play a game unless it involves wreslting around and even if it don’t, he adds it in with pushing and grabbing, and he seems so hyper. He is also whiny. He will fuss over everything. He hardly eats. I think he may have milk allergy o lactose prblem, but still looking in to it. Does it sound like e has an add problem? It’s jsut that I read things online about it and he fits like every line of the toddler add/ Any advice?
he can say uh huh, yeah, dad, choo choo, grammy, and god. he won’t say mom or anything else.
his diet is not the problem. He is more or less a vegetarian meaning he will rarely eat meat. He loves fruits and thats just about all he eats along with potatoes. He dosn’t get a lot of sugars his fruit is al natural. He doesn’t get junk food or candy on a regular basis.

Sunday, January 6th, 2008Amethyst asked:
My stepson has ADHD. Is this hereditary/genetic. I feel my husband presents a lot of the same symptoms. Absent-minded, inability to focus, impulsive. I want my husband to seek some help (at least rule it out). He refuses to do so and laughs at me. It is really difficult because I am always managing my stepson’s behavior and at the same time my husband acts in much of the same way. Should I just let it go or bring it up at my son’s session with psychologist (we have family sessions)

My 6 almost 7 year old first grader was resently tested for adhd. He is going back for his second test tomarrow. The plan is to give him one pill of ridalin 90min before to see if he does better, if so they will prescribe him some medicine. Well my worry is that I’ve heard some scarry stuff about this kind of meds. Are there any parents who have an adhd child, that have any dos or don’ts with this type of medicine?

Any advice for teaching ADHD/ ADD students?

Hi teachers, I just found out this week that I have two new students coming in next year with ADHD and ADD. I teach a multi-grade classroom (5th and 6th grades) in a small private school. I must follow a strict schedule to get the subject matter taught to both grades every day. The students have time every day to get their “seatwork” done …. writing, spelling list, etc… while I am teaching the other grade. The parents of these new students seem to think there will be no problems — one is on medication — I don’t know what to think. One is coming from another school, one is coming from home school. What is important for me to know? Where is the best place for them to sit in the classroom? How do I find a course or class on this, that I can take this summer to learn about this? I have no training nor experience with ADHD, and right now I feel overwhelmed. Thanks for any advice you have.
