Why, he just needs to be screened for ADHD and drugged. /sarcasm. And, yes, folks, I am aware that the truly ADD/ADHD do indeed need and benefit from medication. I just think that anytime a child, especially a boy, wiggles or looks out the window, the answer is medication and more funding for special programs.

Part of the reason (not all, mind you)I ended up homeschooling was because I had a Sunday School teacher say my son seemed ADHD many times, because of how he acted at age 4. I didn't want to have to deal with any similar things in the public school. (btw, my nephew truly is ADD. he would act like my son when he was on actually on his medication.) At 11 my son is very calm. I love his reaction to his little brothers' mischevious ways. I just smile and say, "You were worse."
