1Kid carries a diagnosis of ADHD-combined inattentive type with hyperactivity. He has completed the Dore program as of February 2008. The goal of the Dore program is to ease and/or eliminate the frustrations, difficulties, and symptoms of ADHD and other learning disabilities by stimulating and developing the cerebellum, otherwise known as Cerebellar Developmental Delay. This is a journal of 1Kid's journey through the program.

Your so lucky to have those sort of courses available to you and 1 kid is so lucky that you care enough to find out the information and cover the costs to send him on them. So pleased he's matureing just great.
That sounds great. Can we have more details of what has changed and how it is affecting you and your family
Kathiella,
One purpose of the workshops is to empower teens to help them express their feelings. 1Kid has suffered from some tummy troubles from stress, so I hope this new skill will help him there. Of course, this week has been quite a pendulum swing, as he seems quite full of himself, but L&L is going hand in hand with what he has come back with and I am doing my part in listening, empathizing, and working together to discuss things with him, rather than getting upset. It was a very powerful workshop, many fears, tears, and roadblocks to their future success were shared amongst the group. He is attending a followup workshop again this week.
