Hi,
Has anyone had problems with other people not wanting to have playdates with the siblings of an ADHD kid ? I asked one mom who insisted we go to her house not mine ? I didn't think too much of this until I overheard something. My daughters nursery school teacher's daughter is in a class with my son. She was talking to another mother about my son like he is autistic or something. (he may be high functioning autism but we don't know yet for sure) I pulled her aside and asked her about it the next day and she told me I must be mistaken and totally denied talking badly about my ADHD son. I now feel like these other moms will not want their kids to play with my daughter outside of school because they will be afraid of my son. Jeffrey can be aggressive but we are medicating him and taking a parenting class soon. He is also seeing a psychiatrist. I don't want to switch her to another school but I feel really bad about this. Am I overreacting ? PS My daughter is only 2 and my son is 7

I do not think the teacher should be talking about your child with another parent. Very unproffessional.
I know that I avoid letting my dtr(not adhd) have friends over because my son(adhd) gets so out of control . If we have someone over his attention getting behavior is over the top. He picks fights with his sister and torments her and her friend. He doesn't have many friends and the ones he does I do not know if I want him to go over there, so haveing him go somewhere while dd friends are over is not a go. We do a lot of swimming pool stuff, roller skating, pick up and drop off but not many overnights.
