Thanks everyone! This helps tremendously! Will keep you all posted on what we find out. I think she may fall in the inattentive bracket - we can be talking directly to her, she's nodding her head like she is listening, and five minutes later cannot remember a thing about the conversation. I don't think she is hyperactive. She is forgetful, messy and disorganized. We really started noticing it this year when somewhere between the time we do homework in the afternoon (when she remembers the necessary books) and time to turn it in the next morning, her homework gets lost. She also makes lots of little careless mistakes when doing her work, as though she is only halfway paying attention to what she is doing. Anyway, I suppose we will talk to someone about it further. Would you recommend starting with the school, pediatrician or a psychiatrist? Thanks all!
