actually Candace they bought her the outfit she is wearing for the game................................... Have to admit for LJ not meeting kids...... (read loud boyz) She has them well trained......and they fight over who gets to keep in whose bed till I go to sleep...................

Just wondering... Have they been tested for sleep apnea? I read an article about a study done where a high percentage of kids were misdiagnosed with ADHD, when really their only problem was having apnea. (It was well over 50% misdiagnosed.) Just thought I'd mention it. No sense anyone suffering if they don't have to.

(At one time it was a misconception that only adults have SA. Now they're finally realizing that anyone can have it.)

Never heard that kids can have it but will ask the pediatrician next week.

Crow thank you! will certainly have this checked out. ADHD is very over (shall we say prescibed) used. You gave me something to think about................as usual

[crow_noir]

No problem!

I've seen plenty of people suffer from the effects of ADHD prescriptions. (It's my opinion that but in VERY rare cases kids be put on these things. These meds acts soooo different in kid brains than they do in adult brains.)

I also know what sleep deprivation can do to people. 1st hand sufferer, 1st hand receiver of sleep dep anger, and 2nd hand seen the effects.

S.O. was AMAZED at the difference going on a CPAP made. (And i was relieved at how much healthier he has become mentally and physically.)

What can i say... it's just in my nature to try and watch over others and make sure they're safe.
