Guest guest Posted June 3, 2002 Report Share Posted June 3, 2002 Hi Zanna Oh my gosh .... another day that's the pits. I'm not sure what to tell you about Brody. I'm wondering though if he has that disorder that makes them more hyper and not listen to anyone. Can't remember what it's actually called. I wonder if it would benefit you and him to have him checked out or at least studied to see if he might have it. Of course, only you know for sure if he's really hyper or not. I can't imagine anyone taking him in if he doesn't pay attention to anyone. It's a tough call that's for sure. I hope you finally get some rest. Is your hubby home yet to help out?

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2002 Report Share Posted June 4, 2002 Hi, Zanna. Sorry to hear you've had such a rough day. I was thinking, maybe you should mention to your Dr. to see is Brody might possibly have ADHD (Hyperactivity). He just may need something to slow him down a bit. I believe my oldest daughter has this, and have mentioned it to my Dr., but haven't seen the Pediatrician yet to voice my concern. Just a thought....hopefully I didn't offend you, because that wasn't my intention. Hang in there....today will be better. ) Dawn wischic68@... wrote: > I was feeling ok for most of the morning.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2002 Report Share Posted June 4, 2002 Hi, Vicki. I guess great minds think alike. The disorder is called ADHD (attention deficit HYPERACTIVITY disorder). There is also an ADD, but that's basically for low attention span, not the hyper part. Dawn anzavic@... wrote: > Hi Zanna > > Oh my gosh .... another day that's the pits.
