As it stands now there are none in this area specifically for ADHD, not for 400 miles :(

I’m doing ok, I’ve accepted it and I’m working with it instead of against it and seeing small successes that are huge in reality with all three of us since :) The main reason I feel the need for the specialist is for my son. The lack of actual understanding of this is unbelievable especially in the school system….daily I’m left shaking my head thinking….”why didn’t you count to ten….????” when I’m called for 3rd time that week to my son’s school. They don’t believe me or something….it’s a small place…I’m an unemployed single mom with two children and I think I going to sit here explaining to them….”well educated individuals” how to deal with the situation(s) more effectively???? Hold up they say. As under the other post “just stop it”….that’s where their heads are while they are thinking up all the reasons in the world why he just does this or somehow this is a direct reflection of my parenting……???

I want to scream ……Let me say I live around some doozies …kids raising themselves…..and their children are doing great no calls…..these parents never make a craft or play a game or read to their kids…yet no calls?

It’s very frustrating for me as a parent with zero community support and it would have to be 2x as frustrating for the children :( Because they wish more than anything else they could just be like………(insert random name here).

…..apologies for the rant but having a moment and grrrr……glad I could say it here and didn’t keep thinking on it building and building until it came out at 100kmph when dropping him at school tomorrow :)
