Thanks everyone! We are setting up a meeting with her teachers next week, and I am curious as to how they will react. I think one will work with her as much as possible, and I hate to say it, but I think the other will probably blow the report and suggestions off. I think that is the main reason I don't want the label quite yet. I'm worried that some people will automatically will react the same way as "Colonist" did, and make a biased judgement without ever meeting my child. Those of you with ADD, what have been the responses of teachers, schools, etc? Were most willing to work with you, or did you find some just looked at you as having no "willpower?"
JAM - you are so right, as usual! I do want to make sure we are 100% on target before getting and sharing a diagnosis. We are still learning about ADD and how it affects our girl, so I think taking our time would be most judicious at this point!
Lisa - I constantly have to repeat myself to my daughter to make sure that she hears me! Now that I know the source, I have become much more tolerant of her - I make her look at me now when I talk to her so she can focus on what I'm saying - LOL!
