behavior intervention plans can help

Hi Lavonne, Most parents of children with ADHD usually turn to medication as a last resort. Behavior intervention plans can help. I recommend that you consider trying that first. If you find it isn't working or that your child is not learning or improving his behavior, you may want to talk with your physician about alternatives. I agree with you that the decision is a serious one that requires the input of your medical professional.

ADHD

My son has ADHD, and the school wants me to put him on medication for his behavior. I'm not sure about that. Is there something safer?
