Well he is 27 now, has been to iraq where his fellow soldiers treated him like the company mascot ,everyone loved him, including the ladies from all the pics i saw and back and now works for me in construction, Still loves to talk, His girlfriend loves that ,is the kindest, most generous,easy to get along with,unending patience, person you will ever meet.So i wouldnt be so eager to do that,Maybe as one of my co workers said when he was growing up "hey he is just high on life"

Once again, just because your son "likes to talk" doesn't mean he's ADHD.
