...it is to have #2 medicated! He has been sitting quietly working on Algebra since shortly before 9:00 (it's 12:15 now), with a short break once an hour. No fuss, no problems focusing, no problems!
I really wish, when we had asked his teachers last year how he was doing being unmedicated, we had gotten an honest answer rather than a dismissive Oh, he's OK. We saw the grades going down, but the feedback we were getting from the school didn't warrant us looking into what was actually going on with him.
Hindsight...
