		<description><![CDATA[We were called to school a couple weeks ago to discuss Fast Boy&#8217;s behavior. It&#8217;s certainly a lot better than it has been in the past, but his teacher is getting frustrated. She said that every time she thinks she finds a reward that works for him, it works for about a week and then [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fastboy.wordpress.com&blog=1372164&post=28&subd=fastboy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t posted in quite some time, I know. Does that mean things have been quiet? Unfortunately, no. However, things have gotten better in the past year. Nobody is getting hit in the face with sticks and so far there have been no in-school suspensions.  (Knock on wood.)

		<description><![CDATA[Fast Boy has an IEP and was previously placed in the &#8220;Exceptional Child Program&#8221; for behavioral and emotionally disabled children.  We get feedback regarding his behavior on a pretty consistent basis.  We see reports on what goals have been set for him and what he needs to improve on.  So,  I&#8217;m sorry that I was completely confused [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fastboy.wordpress.com&blog=1372164&post=15&subd=fastboy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[School has been in session for a while now and the Concerta that we put Fast Boy on is obviously helping.  Between those two things, I haven&#8217;t felt the need to post here as often.  (Thank goodness!) 
Fast Boy&#8217;s behavior at school has definitely improved.  It&#8217;s still a far cry from what I or his teachers would [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fastboy.wordpress.com&blog=1372164&post=14&subd=fastboy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t need a formal ADHD medication debate.  The debate exists enough right here in my own head.  My son went to school today on Concerta.  I hate it!  I absolutely hate it!
When Fast Boy was three years old, I asked the doctor to prescribe something for him.  Either he was going on medication&#8230; or I was.  [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fastboy.wordpress.com&blog=1372164&post=13&subd=fastboy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
