Hi, First post and intro

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

Hi my name is Michelle, My son is Jonathan he is 8 and will turn 9 the beginning of November. I am married and besides Jonathan I also have a 23 year old daughter. Jonathan is in the third grade. He is in an inclusion class. He has ADHD and in taking focilin. He receives OT, Speech, resource room and reading help. I think he is doing well in school right now but it is a lot of review. Homework time is a nightmare since the medication is usually out of his system by time I get home and we start homework so if anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. Jonathan is also taking Tenex for tics he was experiencing. I notice they are starting to come back a little but we have an appointment with the neurologist on October 8th so I will see what she says. I am hoping to share with other families here how have the same issues. Michelle

Welcome, Michelle! I would also share with the doctor the difficulty about doing homework in the evening. I would be asking the school to reduce his homework as well.
