Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Most parents just " know " their child has ADHD by the time the child is 3. That does not mean, however, that it can be tested or treated. Usually this process is done once the child reaches school age and has to attend to school-related activities. I do know of kids who are in preschool programs (special ed) who are on medication, but it is rare. Treatment is usually started once the behavior interferes with learning, unless it is interfering with daily family life, too. Did that help? I can help you more if you give me more info. This is my area of expertise. You can also email me privately at magicrss @hotmail.com. Jodi Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
