[Fred A. Baughman Jr., MD: Thanks for writing. Which article please? Where? Write me if you would with a bit more detail about your ADD experience. Sincerely, Fred Baughman, MD] ************@aol.com wrote: Thank you for your article about ADD and ADHD. I tried for 2 years to convince the courts that a boy that I have custody of was NOT ADD, contrary to tests that had been done on him. His behaviour "without" medication has greatly improved now. This child just needed a stable and loving home with consistent rules and consequences for bad behaviour. I think a lot of children are misdiagnosed and put on medication when some of the traits are simply "being children" or lie in a childs rebellion against instability in a family. Thanks again. |
