I’ll repeat what I said on the same thread that’s posted on Just Chat News.
“eeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr” :shock:
Me and my mate went to the London Dungeons years ago [ahem it was errrr at least 7 years ago so perhaps it’s changed].
Anyhoo, we just pished ourselves laffing – it was dire ! think of a cheap imitation [if there could be such a thing] of Madame Tuassards with pish poor quality dummies. LOL What a load shyte is was.
Hopefully it’s improved since then !

sorry ive only just come across this thread :? so i will apologise if i rake up an old row.
being a parent of a child with adhd i can categorically state that it takes at least 2 to 3 years of visits to a psychiatrist, plus talks with the school and parents before they are even put on medication, and the medication isnt thrown at them it is used with extreme caution, usually by sending them to a hospital for kids with learning problems everyday for at least three months.
then there are the outpatient visits once every six months to do follow up checks for height weight and blood pressure, and to discuss whether the meds need increasing or decreasing. i would also like to add that if a child starts losing weight because of the drugs they are taken off them immedialty.
adhd is an illness that is caused by a chemical imbalance in the left frontal lobe which causes the brain to work at half its normal speed, and causes behavioural problems that can be mild or extreme. it also hinders learning because a child simply cannot focus on one thing long enough to take it in. for example learning to read can be extremly frustrating and upsetting for a child with adhd that hasnt been treated, because they cant focus on the words on the page no matter how many times you go over it with them.
as for the bad behaviour side of it when my kid is on meds she is far from being a “zombie” she is like any other kid, she can still play and have a joke and a laugh and hold a decent conversation. however when she is off them (usually first thing in the morning and last thing at night), she has severe mood swings, which are sometimes violent. she cannot focus on getting herself ready for school, will not brush her teeth or her hair unless told by me umpteen times, will not change her clothes or look after her personal hygeine and even then only after i have nagged her. (she is almost 13 by the way) gets frustrated easily and extremly angry if she cant find something straight away, and will kick off into a major tantrum until she has found it. and the only thing you can do is let them get it out of their system because sometimes trying to help them just makes them even more frustrated.
im sorry some kids are badly behaved due to bad parenting, however i think there are also kids that genuinely do have behaviour difficulties and you cant slate all parents with unruly kids the same, unless you know the reasons behind the bad behaviour.
Titania – so sorry for you and your daughter – you definately deserve respect for being a conscientious parent and supporting your child.
Could I ask a queston [or three] ? if a child has adhd, does that carry on into adulthood ? is it a lifetime condition ? is it a 20th century condition or has this always been around but undiagnosed ?
I don’t really know anything about the condition, and think society just label kids with adhd as being “unruly” kids rather than trying to understand the condition.
