Tonya I am glad you feel you did the right thing in his discipline, he is your child and you know him best, it just sounded a tad harsh, being xmas and all, I agree ADHD children need discipline even more so than children who donot have it, but it has to be the right kind, some things that work for other kids just donot work for ADHD children, so they learn absolutely nothing, except they are always in trouble and getting smacked or told off and punished, one cannot help but feel for these kids, as it seems that is all their life is about.

I also was not aware, he had lots of other gifts, I thought the poor wee chappie was going to get nothing, and my heart just went out to him, sorry if I questioned your decision, but you were kinda asking for advice.

Only you and you alone know what Jaden is really like and capable of , as long as you are happy with your decision, sounds like it was the right thing to do in the long run anyhow, he certainly learned about giving and seeing children so worse off than himself, that in itself is a wonderful lesson in life for him, so maybe his naughtiness was a mixed blessing in a funny kind of way, cheers.


p.s Tonya, ya know i love ya.
