Hi I'm in the same boat my eight year old has adhd and my three year old acts like he did before meds I know my childs doctor wont put him on meds til hes five but if it runs in the family like brothers or sisters have it most likeley your three year old has it try some stuff over the counter I was told fish oil works I wish you luck if you find out anything let me know ↑ |
well i figured out if you give them a route and be as nice as you can it helps and it leaves not time for any other kids but sometimes you get to the point that you dont think you can take it anymore but dont give up it gets better i am going though it myself love the child the best you can ↑ |
well when my son was 3 i tried to rell me the he seem different the other kids and know one would listen but know he's been diagnosed with adha, odd, a behaviour disorder and anxitey thing are really bad now he is 6 and i wish he could have gotten help when he was younger so try to make people listen if you feel something is not right. ↑ |
May I suggest an easy form of behavior modification? Things like getting dressed by themself earns a big red star. Picking up toys at the end of the day earns a star. Brushing their teeth, etc. Stuff like that. Age approperate. Things like talking back will remove a star. Not doing as they are told will remove a star. This should help with unwanted behavior. Once they get like 5 stars throughout the day, reward the good things with a dessert. This is usually hard to start but if you hang in there, it will prove to be a positive thing and the kids think it is awesome. Update it yearly! Hopefully this will be all that is needed. If not, it will help until your child is old enough for medicine.
Good luck! ↑ |
