 RF>  doesn't get to do that because he still has a bed wetting problem.  
r.s
 RF>  haven't been able to help him with that.  I read sometimes when they go 
RF>
 EO> on medication for ADHD/ODD that this can stop.  I sure hope so for

 EO> didn't mind 
 
 EO> It's nice to have your children's friends' parents be so helpful.  Are
 EO> they also friends of yours? 
 
 They are becoming so.  The father is an employee of my husbands.  We try to
 be friends with them and they seem pretty nice.  
 
 
 EO> If your kids can behave
 EO> themselves in school with a diagnosis of ADHD, I think the diagnosis
 EO> is inaccurate.  Are you working during school hours? 
 
 No the diagnosis is accurate.  Jonathon was brought up in a secluded area
 for a few year so he was really anti-social.  First he was quiet and was
 afraid of most kids , then he would hit them as he became more comfortable
 and tease them.  He did a lot of squirming and fidgeting and daydreaming in
 school.  He just didn't get into really big trouble.  Teachers loved him 
lot
 though.  They said it was his long eyelashes.  They would look at his big
 brown eyes and feel sorry for him.  But because he was not a real big 
rouble
 maker they would call him lazy.  Jeremy is a little bit of an introvert.  He
 kidda acts shy.  This year (2nd grade) he has been sent to the office 
everal
 times.  The principle understood the problem to a degree and never suspended
 him.  He tried to threaten him with that, but Jeremy said OH WELL.  He just
 didn't care.  Although, he did, cause he came home and went to him room
 crying.  They seem to have some kind of respect for the classroom.  Maybe
 because I am always there.  Talking to the teachers, principle, and 
nvolving
 them in any special after school or summer program this district can offer
 them.  They all know me.  Yet I still don't get enough cooperation.
 No I don't work,  I use to though.  I was going to volunteer at school, but
 I decided to take a year and relax.  Now I will be homeschooling this next
 year.
