Thanks for the response Hans. I agree with all you’re saying, and I will be getting her tested next time she goes back to California which won’t be for several months now (cost prohibitive otherwise). I still wonder though if a child being reared by an ADD parent could exhibit behavior patterns deveoped over the years which are similar to that parent, but not be ADD themselves. I’m finding that since taking my meds, my child has perked up a bit herself, seems more prepared for school and happier. I’m not in “denial mode” or anything like that, if she is diagnosed, then I have no problem having her treated, I’m wondering if anyone else noticed after having gotten it together, via meds or whatever, if they noticed changes in their childrens attitudes or behavior. (her father is not ADD). Thanks.
