RE: My Greatest Fear as a Parent... - #steemitmamas competition entry
My heart goes out to you!!!! Having a daughter with ADHD myself, we struggled with the education system and medicines as well. You are an amazing mom! Hang in there, love on him and encourage him to find what learning method works best for him. My daughter graduated from college! (We were surprised she was excepted to college) She found a group of supportive friends in college to study with, which included developing her own study habits which worked for her. Finding their niche and support system is so helpful! Blessings to you and your family :)
Thank you! People often don't understand ADHD, they just think they are naughty children or can't be bothered to work. They don't realise they can be passionate about the things that matter to them. And when you refuse to drug them, the teachers just don't get it. they don't see the negative mental health effects, only that they can produce written work and that is all they care about. I am so pleased your daughter has done so well, it is always good to hear positive stories! xD
Thank you :)
