I understand the issue with the stigma attached to psych meds, but it's due to lack of understanding.
Again, I want to reiterate that you know your child. If you believe something else can be done other than meds, do it. Don't put her on meds just because someone tells you it's best.

We along with the teacher, and Phsyciatrist are focusing on other ways to control her lack of attention which right now even though it's noticable is not keeping her from progressing.
