I did some brief research into ADHD, because what keeps striking me and others, including some of you, is that it seems to be more than ADHD.

Turns out there are a couple behavior disorders in the DSM that more than half of kids diagnosed with ADHD also exhibit (conduct disorder, oppositional-defiant disorder). I’ve no idea if he’s diagnosed with either, but they both fit him—e.g., persistent refusal to follow rules, persistent resistance to authority figures.

Doesn’t bode well for changing his behaviors.

If he shows up in class after I send him my report today, I think I will talk to campus security and see if they’d be willing to do a “walk by.”
