My 13-Year-Old's Impulsive Behavior Drives Children and Teachers Crazy! {ParentDish}
Feb 20th 2011 2:24PM I am the mom of 2 kids. My oldest son has ADHD which was evident at 18 months and diagnosed at 4.5. He too had a great deal of difficulty with social situations along the way. He is now a college freshman. He has a handful of friends but still struggles with regular organizational skills. He is getting assistance at college with organizing his studies and is working towards making strides in social settings. I am proud of all of the wonderful things that he has done this year for himself. A big leap of faith for all of us. Prayer, trust and patience. It will get better. We tried many different approaches to managing the ADHD and fiund that medication really helped him cope the most.
Buying Luggage Without Spending Bags of Money -- Savings Experiment {WalletPop}
Feb 17th 2011 4:51PM Go directly to TJ MAxx, Marshalls or any other off price place. Do not spend money on luggage. I did and will never do it again. The bags get wrecked and it is next to impossible to get money back from the airlines. This is a place to save.

Steve-O on Getting Sober: 'I Had Been Spinning Out of Control for Some Time' {PopEater}
Nov 20th 2010 6:34PM Hey Steve-
People with ADHD are more prone to addiction. They do not know what is wrong and so they try to self medicate with drugs/alcohol. You might want to look into this issue. It would make life a whole lot easier for you. Be well.
Best, Momma bear

Opinion: Sometimes, It's OK to Let Your Kid Be Bullied {ParentDish}
Oct 20th 2010 3:09PM My son was bullied in middle school. It was always done in the hallways between classes. He never said a word until I asked him if he had ever been bullied. He then told me that very day the kid who harassed him had told him that tomorrow was his birthday and he was going to kill my son. We kept our son home from school that day and spoke to the police and principal. We were told that the bully was to be examined by a mental health professional and would then return to school. ONE appointment!! What about my son?? We were told that the teachers would look after him. That had not happened for a year, why now? I am a teacher. I know that they do not have time for that. In my opinion, they did not take it nearly as seriously as they should have. Shame on them.
