She's been tested by a neuropsychologist this summer, who only had her dad's version of her symptoms, and he diagnosed her with borderline ADD and suggested a med trial. Had he gotten information from me and her teachers, there's no doubt in my mind she truly has ADD. She's been on medication before and it helped. Her father is completely against medication. He's of the mindset that if you ignore it, it doesn't exist; if she wants to improve her grades, she'll just do it.

She's also having a problem with weight gain and growth, so her GP doesn't really want to keep her on it, even though he knows she has ADD too.

Talk about stuck between a rock and a hard place.

I'm going to have to talk to him about this. Really not looking forward to his holier than thou, I know best, you can't make a decision attitude. But he has to realize it's nothing I'm doing wrong. It's not like I'm letting her struggle at home intentionally. If she took the notes and could pay attention, she wouldn't have the grades she has.
