So, I wanted to thank everyone who shared his/her story with me. We did end up making the decision to try medication for our daughter, and after a rocky start, I can't begin to tell you the improvement that we've seen. When her school work comes home, it's as if a completely different child has done it. We don't have to fight to do her 5 minutes of homework each night. She's not afraid of the work anymore.
I still have reservations in my heart about giving such a little one such strong medication, but she LOVES school now, just as I always thought she would. With a bit of enrichment, I believe she will be caught up to her peers soon.
ETA: the more research I do, the more convinced I am that I have it, too. Any parents had a similar experience?
