For many parents it is hard to believe how fast their babies grow up and turn into little people. The on-coming of the child’s first day of school is sometimes as hard to take for the parents as it is for their child. Many emotions can come into play—from shock (realizing that their baby is a baby no more) to fear (how will my child handle the stresses of school?). But the biggest change happens in the child’s life.

The first day of school for any child can be a stressful experience. They are leaving their secure home environment and are leaving the supporting and loving arena created by their parents. They are literally being left alone to handle life for the first time. The world they are entering has many new faces and new obstacles to overcome. It can be overwhelming for a child. And if your child is more of a sensitive sort, it can be devastating.

Some children enter the school system whole-heartedly, with a smile on their face and nary a look back at their parents. These children tend to be emotionally strong and secure with themselves. Other children cling to their mothers and seem to feel they are being abandoned. They do not seem ready to enter into the real world by themselves.

Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD, is a growing topic of concern in today’s child population. In a new report released by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) this disorder has been diagnosed in 1.6 million elementary school aged children. It is said that in a typical classroom with 30 students, 1 to 3 children will have ADHD. And in fact, a national survey showed that 7% of children aged 6 to 11 years of age were reported to have ADHD by their doctor or health professional. ADHD is more prevalent in boys than in girls, with boys being diagnosed 3 times as often as girls.

Picture a boy named David. He is a growing, healthy, happy boy. He has ADHD, but it is not something you can see. It is more like a learning disability, but that’s not exactly right either. David is the kid who acts before he thinks, usually on some rash impulse. He is the child who will ride his big-wheel down a flight of stairs. He is the child who speaks before he thinks of what he is saying, most times with embarrassing results. He cannot seem to remember a simple request, no matter how often you tell him. He is easily distracted from any task he is doing. Even if he is hurt and crying, his tears can be shut off instantly as something else comes into his view. He is the kid in school whom teachers tell you could do the work if only he set his mind to it.
