my 13 yr old son,seems to be spiraling out of control.he has been on strattera and concerta.Which the strattera seemed to work really well for awhile,then,after about3 or 4 months,it was like he wasn't even takin it.I'm a 35 yr old widow,and it gets old having to repeat myself to him all the time,or yell at him.I have tried everything else,it seems.Groundings,taking away privilages,no watchin t.v.,the "old fashioned whippins",i'm runnin out of what to do's...I've heard too much bad raps on those A.D.D. meds,I don't want anything bad to happen to him,but,I don't want most of his memories of being younger,of me yellin at him all the time,and bustin his butt...I know I had plenty and then some ,of my share of whippins when I was growin up..But,then,D.C.F.S., wasn't as "popular"as it is now days.They step in when they shouldn't and don't when they need to.Sometime he can b the best kid.but he's not doin well in school,and 70%of the time,has the most hateful attitude....HELP..............
