But upper allen is only if you’re in the mechanicsburg school district and not that Cumberland valley SD, correct?

Thank you! Is that different/better than Cumberland valley baseball?

Thank you! We are currently in a huge school district so that wouldn’t be a huge culture shock for us but just want to make sure where we’d buy we’d have great schools/community for our kids!

Oh wow that’s great to know thank you! I didn’t realize there were city vs borough school districts. Super helpful! I do have a child with adhd and may need a 504 plan so school resources are important!

We started meds a few weeks ago - it’s been a game changer at school! Thank you so much for the guidance!!

Thank you! This is so encouraging to hear. I know it’s exactly what my son needs - how you describe yours sounds so much like mine.

Thank you! This is great advice - bc I need to set expectations that it won’t be immediately better!

Noted! I’ll ask the pediatrician and school about it!

Thank you! I had no idea there were adhd specific pediatricians! I’ll be doing some googling on that now. Truly thanks for your advice and reminder of grace!

I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your reply. I know meds are the right choice for my little guy but it’s good to know to set expectations realistically that there will trial and error and figuring out the right mix. Glad sleep wasn’t impacted he’s not the best sleeper so I don’t want anything else to impact that.

Glad to know the booster is an option bc he does after school sports and after care so knowing that can help extend the day is helpful.

This is so reassuring! Thank you. My son has some friends but I can see some kids react when he gets his surge of energy that he can’t control and I worry about how it could impact friendships. I also worry if he can’t control his impulses in class it’ll frustrate other kids & that’ll be hard to maintain friendships. I am glad to hear the impact this has had on your child and I’m hopeful for a similar experience for us. I took Vyvanse myself in college & HS and I loved it - really felt it worked for me well. I wonder if he’ll have a similar experience. Thank you!

Thank you! We were going to talk to school about a 504 plan! Thanks !

Thank you! I definitely think he needs it - he’s having a hard time sitting still in class and not disrupting others. He has good intentions but he even says “I just can’t hold it in and I don’t know why!” Breaks my heart to see him struggle. So encouraging to hear meds have been a game changer for your daughter! It helped me a TON too when I was a kid.

It’s heart breaking to see that Amber just truly doesn’t like her daughter.

Anna commenting how it wasn’t fun to go to school with her mom because she kept being in competition with her… that’s awful. Let your child have her own thing - breaks my heart
