Interesting story about DD. Yesterday she was off school and I worked with her on ixl.com a little bit, since she learns no math in school and she likes it. I thought that she did not have her medication. I couldn't figure out why she wasn't wiggling, why she was actually focusing on the questions, and seemed calm. I thought "maybe she doesn't really have ADHD if she does this well without meds?" I was seriously confused. Later on I figured out she DID have her medication. Dh gave it to her before he went to work.
Before I got to the part that she actually had her meds I was thinking "computer." Apparently, computer games are unique in their delivery of consequences that really reach a peeson with ADHD ... Something like the immediancy and the several things going on at once? So, basically an person with adhd supposedly can concertrate for hours on a computer game without meds. Not sure if IXL would count as a computer "game," though. My DS does great on it, though. Very focused by it
His computer vision therapy though - whooaaa excrutiating for him apparently
