Reply #17: My son was ADHD and ADD and the school system didn't test him

[southernyankeebelle]

at first. I had him in catholic school in kindergarten. Than we moved and I got a job in a sociologist office. I was typing reports where he was doing testing on some of these kids. I noticed he had some of the same problems. I talked with him and I paid for him to be tested. Than we sent a letter to the school and then they tested him. I tell you moving around really didn't help him very much. He has always had learning problems. He is smart but can't spell worth anything. He graduated high school and he is working at a eating establisment. He has been there a very long time. He has a good work ethnic. He works hard. If you have a learning disability your kind of tagged.
