In Reply to: Public school staff inflexible with ADD child, can you help? posted by Randall on February 10, 2000 at 01:24:24:

i don't have a child with add. I am i child with add. I also have the same prolem. My school's teachers say i am not responsible because i forger things. Or , since im an anxios also, i feel small sicknesses worse then other kids, so i get sick alot, and teahers yell at me for being late because i was with the nurse. I wan you to know your daughter in not alone. The thigs i wrote are only some of my add difficulties, and its hard being and add kid. I feel that people who dont think ADD is a rea problem , need to understand how hard it is! Most of my teahers dont understand how i can be smart and cretive , yet still have a learning diabilities. I came on this site to research ADD. And some people just dont understand. But you can talk to the school counseler about the probems your daughter has.
