We’re dealing with this right now. Our daughter is having a hell of a time at school because of what seems to be ADHD (we’ve done an initial evaluation, but not a formal one). It’s frustrating because the teachers seem good at figuring out which kids have it, but don’t seem equipped to deal with it. the end result is my kid being singled out and punished for things that are beyond her control. It’s frustrating because it’s leaving her feeling like she’s a loser or problematic, when really she’s just struggling to fit in to the classroom setting (recess, in particular).
