Recently Shaun’s quarterly school evaluation came home and it wasn’t good. It said Shaun talks excessively in all of his classes, distracts others and is below 2nd grade level. Needless to say Melinda and I aren’t happy and are very upset about this.
At his last report card Shaun was at “Meets 2nd Grade Expectations” so we are a little suprised at his declining progress in school. Melinda called to set up a meeting with all of his teachers for this Thursday and a doctors appointment for today.
Melinda and I want to get Shaun evaluated to see if he may have ADD. I know people think ADD is an excuse but we have been putting this off for a year or so and we can’t ignore it any longer. Shaun talks excessively, is easily distracted, always moving and has zero attention span. I am not a fan of medicating young children but if it helps Shaun in school and life I am all for it. I want Shaun to be successful and I feel right now he is to hyper and distracted for that to happen.
We will make sure to update everyone as these appointments take place and let you know how things are progressing.
