I appreciate you sharing John. My classroom is a third grade inclusion classroom. It's made up of many different types of learners.

so like if you were to show me an animal i most likely would know it especially reptiles and n. american fish and animals here real good but other countries also.
i was also in the gifted program for a while till my add and other stuff kicked in. and the medicines sometimes work, but they mess up my mind and make my emotions and feelings all wierd and for a couple hours a day they make me feel real sick

RE: To Childers
well I hope you guys dont mind me droppin in. But I wanted to tell childers that this hits real close to home for me. Ive dealt with the same problems. my original post I realized i had been typing away for a few hours. I decided not to post Im just not real sure if I want to share my horror stories just yet with strangers. I did however save it and I might send it to you guys via PM or email just dont want the rest of the world to know my deepest lifes problems. I do however deffinately want childers to know it does get better. after all my lifes problems that had occured I did wind up Alright I start school this fall I'm majoring in Biology and intend to be a Game warden. I'm 26 years old now but I think I have just about all the pieces put together and feel its always better late than never. I pray for ya that you have better guidance than I had and that you make good decisions where I had no guidance and made many foolish decision and wound up finally going to college at 26 when I should have went when I was 19. God bless and take care

Not at all my friend...And I'd like ot add something about fishing here lest our thread gets removed..If ADD was a label back in my day I would have diffently been labeled ADD. I had so much garbage going on in my mind that I could not concentrate. My mom signed me up in the Boy Scouts..that was a nightmare...I will not expound...What helped me keep my sanity was literally days of walking a creek by myself or with my best freind who is now a Maryland Highway Patrolman.{I did this from age 6...my parents didn't care where I went.}The creek was very rocky and mostly contained the Northern White Suckers, Pumpkinseed Sunfish and an occational smallmouth bass or rainbow trout that a local game warden threw in. I fished everyday Iwould go to the creek to flee from the stress in my broken family. From the Boyscouts..I learned how to tie lashings and build lean twos.. I would sleep alot in the woods ..by myself. At 13 my step dad let me start hunting...I either hunted or fished everyday...literaaly.In the summer I would hunt ground hogs and call in crows.I hated school so my mom bought me suscriptions of Sports Afield, Field and Stream , Outdoor Life, Pennsylvania Game News and Maryland Fishing. I would read those from cover to cover...
.I still find peace and tranquility in God's beautiful natural world...I never strike out.. If the deer or fish don't cooperate I'll hear a bob-white quail or see an Eastern Meadowlark or Swallow tailed Kite.;;or one of the others 1000s of natural beauties.There is no such thing as striking out when fishing or hunting,,just look around and enjoy..

I adopted a boy who is very much ADD..He used to take adderal for it
Same thing here my friends only he was my wifes son. I take him fishing with me alot and he loves it, just can't seem to keep still very long. I tried him hunting last fall and you would of thought I was taking a whole circus with me. Even then he was able to shoot at 2 bucks. He also has asthma so I keep an eye open when we are in the woods.
