We've got something in common faerie. One of my nephews is the same way. Not only is he my nephew but he's my godson so he's my favorite. Nah I love them all equally but the whole godson thing definitely makes me think of him more often. Back to the topic at hand. I'm all for doing whatever works. Kind of a by any means neccesary guy. Don't judge me and I won't judge you. Anyway's my sister and brother in law (great loving highly intelligent people) have taken my nephew to all kinds of doctors and they ended up putting him on adderall. He's been diagnosed with ADD. It has drastically improved his ability to concentrate, sit still, focus etc. Basically all those wonderful things add can do to a person. The thing I'm concerned with is he is only 5 years old. What the heeelll are they going to give him when he's older? I've never mentioned this to my sister because I don't know if she has an answer and I don't want to stress her out. But if he's taking adderall at 5 what are they going to give him in say, 13 years when he turns 18? He'll still have so much life ahead of him. It worries me whenever I think about it. Initally I told her of course he's bouncing off the walls all the time, thats what 5 year olds do! I've learned it goes beyond that, but I haven't learned about whats going to happen in the future. Has me quite perplexed. Any info. would be welcomed.
