I would probably pull her out and homeschool, but I’m not sure how to apply that sort of thing mid-year.

Do whatever you can to encourage it. ANYTHING you can to encourage it. I was the same way, but they[school/pseudopsychs] slapped the ADHD label on me and my life has been cut short on the fullscale academic career. (Don’t ever, ever let your kid take ADHD drugs. This goes for anyone reading. Can permanantly damage the mind!)

I've had so many friends come off the drugs and they are so screwed up (I am too, but I did fine without them). If someone has ADHD (or there child) DO the research! There are other ways of helping it, or even looking at it. I mean I'm right on the edge on needing medication, but I've survived and even almost made it through college.
