Good for you; I did much the same. Why beat your head against a brick wall when you can just walk around it ? Mine graduated homeschool this year and is a most delightful, poised and self-assured person, all which she would not have been if I’d allowed the labeling and drugs without looking deeper.
You might enjoy reading Mary Ann Block; she says much the same as Baughman but from an osteopath’s perspective. Her personal experience with the mainstream medical community led her into exactly what you say. Long before any psychiatric diagnosis is rendered, all likely physical tests should be explored for any underlying physical illness that is contributing to discomfort in any situation. And, since so many of the ADHD behaviors are also common to highly intelligent individuals, a good and engaging curriculum is a must :)
I found her books on Amazon and I’m putting in my order tonight. Thanks for the tip! :)
