Said about my DD2 who is in the process of trying to get an ADHD diagnosis.
Now, I brought up my DStD from the age of 8 and my own DD who is now 17 and I coped with them. Even with the 'you're not my mum, you can't tell me what to do' and teen years with both of them.
I can cope with my DS age 6. I just cannot cope with my DD age 7 and neither can anyone else. Noone else will look after her for me at all (except DP but like mehe has no choice but to get on with it).
What makes this woman, who knows my DD1 quite well think that her behaviour is a failing in my parenting rather than a genuine condition?
I know my friend had all this with her DS before and after diagnosis and I am going to have to get used to this kind of comment, but it is infuriating!!
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
