I have a son who has had ADHD since he was very young. He was on medication until he was 18, after which time he refused to continue taking it. He also has a history of exertional asthma, although he has never been prescribed any meds, and he only gets SOB at times when playing sports, such as ice hockey.
My son is now 21. Since graduating from high school he has gone to a vocational school 2 times and dropped out both times without completing either program. He has had at least 10 other jobs which he can only keep for a few months. The jobs seem too hard for him if they are productvity related, ie get this pallet together in a warehouse and wrapped within a limited timeperiod.
He has expressed an interest in joining the navy or airforce to try and get a fresh start to his life. Given his medical history of ADHD and asthma is there any way he could get in?
