Older DD has ADHD and dyslexia - will younger DS?

[sarahsbd]

Anyone has experience of this?
I am wondering if my son will have both conditions as well as my DD, he is 3 and already I am questioning his behaviour and what is normal toddler and what is more than that..

Hopeful bump

Just another..

Well being ND is genetic so he has more chance than if his siblings were NT.

Have you spoken to your HV yet or his Nursery?

He goes to a childminder so I think she just thinks he doesn't listen and he's a naughty 3 year old.

I wondered if anyone on here has experience of older and younger siblings both having adhd and dyslexia?

Both of mine are have the first but haven't been tested for the second.

You might get some more responses if you post your concerns in the SN Children section.

Your CM doesn't seem very good though. Labelling a DC as naughty when there is ND in the family isn't on.

My DS is naughty so I agree with CM.
I am just wondering how common it is for siblings to both have ADHD and dyslexia. A quick google says there's a 30% chance or something like that but I'm wondering what the reality is..
