L was recently diagnosed with ADHD. He's a very smart boy with a struggle in focusing. He has started testing medicine. He will start occupational therapy soon. B told him that he has a disease which made L cry. I'm glad I was there quickly to explain the he has a weakness like anyone else. B had a weak eye. G is deaf. L is aware now of this weakness and he's working on it.
L gets a behavior report from school each day. If he follows the rules he gets a star on the chart. He's had some pretty rough reports including getting suspended for hitting a teacher. We made a chart with 10 spots so he could earn the privilege of going to the thrift store. This was a big motivator for L and I'm glad that he did finally achieve the goal. We went to the froof store (as he calls it) and he bought a penny board. Later that night we rode our bikes to the park and he rode the skate board down the sidewalk.
