My daughter has constant anger outbreaks and no behevior, always needs help with all assignments, messy room, rude to everyone especially sibling. What should I do?
Sorry. That’s no fun. You could also look up Devon Maceachron or others for neuropsych exams and Russell Barkley, Ned hallowell, “How to ADHD” for info on adhd. Search “parent management training“ for info on how to work with her. For some kids, esp younger, organizing/standardizing the parenting helps most. Feels like a weird demand, that you change instead of her, but is proven. Salsberg (sp?) is especially known for going to bat with the DOE, so unless you are especially wanting accommodations you would need to fight for, he may not be necessary. Also as people always say, ybm special needs board is very thoughtful.
has she been officially diagnosed with adhd? how old is she? I ask because, depending on her age, this could be neurotypical. an official diagnosis of adhd obviously changes things.
Get her a full neuro psych report with Dr Salsberg.
