{disclaimer: some of you will have your own mama-wolf-hackles go up while reading this. You may think that I'm off my rocker, and that there are legitimate cases of ADD & ADHD out there. Perhaps. But I'm pulling the "This is my blog and I can say what I want to" card.
Also, I am not a doctor - so do not take this post TO your doctor and wave it in his or her face claiming they are a quack ... I don't condone you stopping any medication for your child without the supervision of a doctor, nor do I condone any crazed lunatics calling me or anyone names on this post or anywhere else. This is my opinion, based on my research and my own personal experiences.}

When
my oldest son was 6, he was attending a very prestigious private school in
Calgary. One that came highly recommended academically, spiritually and socially.
I
wanted to the best for my son - of course, and who doesn’t - and being a single
parent, I felt this type of school would be a support system. I needed a
school who would take care of my boy.
Easy right? Well, nothing is ever easy or that black & white.
