My son, Alex, who has ADHD has been awful lately. I'm ready to send him off to Boot Camp. (Are there any for 8 year olds?)
He may need a med change, but he has been very impulsive the past couple of weeks. He says and does whatever comes to his head and doesn't think of consquences or how he is hurting anybody's feelings. You wouldn't believe what comes out of this kid's mouth! We send him into time out, ground him from friends, take basketball away from him and nothing seems to work. We even acknowledge his good behavior by thanking him.
I am at lost what to do with this kid. Tomorrow he has a birthday party to go to and my husband and I decided he is not going. By not letting Alex go we feel we are punishing his friend who wants Alex there. Alex and this boy are best friends.
