Discovered today that when Josha gets wound up and can't loistgen it works well to get him to stand still & count to 3 slowly. Then he is ready to listen.
Anyone got any other things that work?

Good morning.
I will try the not listening & walking away

GOOD NEWS!!!!
Inspite of a horrendous morning yesterday Joshua had such a good day yesterday at school his teacher wrote in his homework book to tell me!!! We had a great evening until tummya ache struck and then no sleep.

Have got some results from hospital and it looks like allergies have got worse - not sure how we are going to deal with them yet - milk, wheat, soya, nuts, eggs & fish - UGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Have a good day all

And this morning he flatly refused to take his meds - school even phoned me to get him to take them there. Now he says they make him feel sick.

We are taking the brave step of taking Joshua off meds - without telling school! Fingers crossed.
Also going to a chart for getting ready for school to help him remember everything and best tip is when he is rude to me tell him how sad he makes me feel
Very Happy

get your doctor to try a different suplier of his medication although it may have the same name the make up of it is diferent this could cause an alergic reaction if he has been on the medication for any time his system could have built up resistance to the medication but most of all show him all the love in the world dont let him see he has upset you I know it is hard but if he sees the love you give him it will be returned believe me dont get stressed feel free to mail me back anytime I am a friend of anths and travel a lot so if you dont get reply stright away dont distress I may be at the other sideof the world best wishes

Thanks for the support.
We have tried several different versions already and always end up at the same point so before we try anything else we are going to have 6 weeks drug free.
Today is the 1st day - he got happy but was grumpy as hell on the walking bus but that's nothing new - he will probably have a great day at school
We're not telling school that he's not taking meds as they don't want to teach him without it - be interesting to see if they notice!!!

So 2nd day of no meds and he slept for 11 hours last night - yippee!
But walking bus are already asking if he's had his meds and he wasn't very good for them yesterday.
Wonder what his teacher will say when I pick him up today?!?!?!!
