One of my line sisters was in the same boat.
Her mother just worked with her intensively. There was no need to medicate, they just needed to upt in extra work at home and school.

I've done fine... Ever since I made this decision, I haven't really needed any extra help. I also have a few other LD's. Again.. I coped.
I'm of the opinion that medication is NOT the answer... and really.. the real world doesn't give you extra time for being ADHD. Why should school?
