My brother has ADHD, and he failed the first grade. We were just studying children with learning disabilities in my college class and the thing I find that helps is when a teacher does NOT single the child out and should think about changing their lesson plan around to teach their diverse class room. His teacher sounds like my brother teacher. It was like everyday he found something to say about my brother and kept complaining about him until the school told my mom to get him check out for ADHD . He received the meds and started doing better in school but soon my mother stopped them and he is back at it again. The teacher has to be willing to work with the student and parent if not, things will not improve. It makes me so upset when I hear this especially when a parent is trying but the teacher feels as if they have to single the child out which is a big NO NO. HUGS to you for being a great mom!
