"I have a eight-year-old daughter who has ADHD and is taking medication. We just can't seem to get her to do anything that is time related (ex. like getting ready for school), fast enough. I have tried making it into a game and beating the clock, with rewards if she hurries. It just doesn't seem to work.
"I usually end up getting her dressed or doing things for her in order to get it done faster. Her teachers and others say she is now dependent on others to do things for her and is not as mature as most eight year olds. What can I do to help her without keeping her from growing up and taking some responsibility for her own actions?" - GKT, Alabama
