I, too, hope she fares better with time. Your daughter and family is exactly what I was thinking of when I said that for some, “it’s the only saving grace.”

We've experimented with all kinds of meds ever since she was diagnosed at age 6. It is very frustrating and we agonized over the decision. The hour in the morning before it kicks in is sheer hell. Any day we forget to give it to her, her teacher calls us by 9:30am asking what the hell is wrong with her. She is completely off the hook and the entire class is disrupted by her behavior. I hope she grows out of the ADHD and doesn't need meds for life. Some kids mellow out at adolescence. My 8 yr old daughter is on low doses of Metadate and Strattera for ADHD.
