[quote=Mamabear]Does anyone have a dc that is ADD (no hyperactivity)? We are in the midst of a variety of testing and I am seeing lots of subtle and not so subtle moves toward medications.
Mamabear,
I have an 18yo gifted daughter who was diagnosed Inattentive ADD at the age of 12. She was much more difficult to diagnose than her brother (ADHD). With a master's in gifted ed, I was concerned about gifted characteristics being mistakenly "diagnosed" as ADD/ADHD, but my children are truly both. If you have any questions about inattentive ADD, PM me and I can give you more info on the path we took. (She is now a freshman in college and enrolled in the honors program so there's hope!)
