My DD2 age 6 is a bit of a challenge, shall we say.
She really does want to be good though and just can't help herself. I have just done an ADHD check list (pediatrics.about.com/cs/adhd/l/bl_adhd_quiz.htm) and most of them are 'Very often' and the remaing 4 are 'often'. She has started to display these behaviours at school too now and has this week been told that she cannot go to the before school excercise club(when she of all people needs it) because she will not do as she is told.
She is non stop lively, has trouble sleeping. She does have cheeky charm though and has many good points, loving and caring.
I know that if I approach the school they will say that a lot of it is because of her age. She is the youngest in her school year and won't be 7 till August. I just think that a lot of her behaviour is too extreme to put down to her age. The club that she has been banned from has many children the same age and younger, including her younger brother.
Any advice on what to do next would be appreciated. I fear the school will say wait till she is 7, but want to get the ball rolling now really.
