Ricky's going to be tested for learning disabilities, ADHD, etc. on January 31. I have mixed feelings about this. I mean, just because a kid is distractible doesn't mean he has ADHD.
The reason I self-referred him to the school district for this is that he has serious behavior problems. We're hoping to isolate the problem and get him registered for the right school (he's starting Kindergarten this fall). If he has ADHD or a learning disability he'll have to go to the school that has special ed, and we have to register for kindergarten in February. So the time to get this handled is now.
Isn't it weird to want him to do well, when wanting to find out the right answers might mean that he won't do well?
A parent's quandary, I guess.
