Do you have a hyperactive child?

Do you have a hyperactive child?
Have you mentioned the problem to your friendly medical professional? What was the result? Was it "to forget it as the child will grow out of the stage"? Or, was it "to prescribe a tranquilizer" which dulls the child's mind and reactions.
Investigate Medical personal trained in diagnosing educational disabilities. With out the proper tools and tests, no medical personal can accurately diagnose these difficulties. Because medications react differently for each person, more knowledge is needed then the average doctor has.

It is often difficult to find this information around many smaller communities and you will probably have to find a larger community for the service. They will sometimes work with the rural doctor, if requested.
Should your child be in Special Education classes, discuss the problem with the staff. Sometimes, they will help you carry some of the expenses as will insurance.
