That's fine. Let them play sports that is a good way to watch for what I have posted in post 34. If a kid is playing baseball and having uncorrectable difficulty when trying to his a baseball it is not the kids fault. Watch for delayed swinging at the ball, ducking away from the ball as if afraid, or swinging at the ball too soon. Watch the kids behavioral responses as well. The kid will not ever be able to play baseball. The kid will need what is called Occupational Therapy which will focus on coordination issues. These things are being missed in doctors offices.

Look at the kids shoes. Is the kid wearing out shoes quickly by breaking the sides over? That points to balance issues. My parents bought me shoes once a month. I had two years of Occupational Therapy in 1970.

I have functional one eye vision. I have vision in both eyes but only one at a time can function. Because I got help I passed both my Navy entrance physical and later my Army NG physical. I also have an extensive history of sinus allergies to the extent shots are required. I do think a lot of kids have this. But I believe it is our technology advances in audio/visual entertainment which has brought it to an epidemic level. Forget the shrink till you take a kid to an audiologist and even an Occupational Therapist. Oh and the best part? No drugs needed.
