[|Human|] I have a six year old boy who was diagnosed with ADD but we are not comfortable with putting him on medication.  We have begun giving him 1/2 cup of coffee each morning, and is working, according to his teachers.  The problem is that after lunch and the coffee has worn off, he is right back to not being able to focus and stay on task.  I would like to send chocolate covered coffee beans for him to snack on at lunch time, but not sure how many...
[|AI|]  Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Attention Deficit Disorder is not as you think. Please understand. A 6-year-old child is supposed to have vibrant and creative mind, and he cannot stick to any task continuously for more than 5 minutes. You cannot diagnose it as ADD. Your child is normal and other child Chat Doctor.  You need to give him training, not stimulants. Otherwise, stimulants will be a habit, and it ruins health in the future. Teachers will say so because their task is cut off. They are supposed to train your child. If they don't, you do. Give him enough rewards (non-monetary, no stimulants), appreciations etc. Sit with him. Help him in his attention. Easy and creative tasks are good for improving attention. There are several methods. I shall help you further in this aspect. You can contact me with a direct question in this portal itself. Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarification. Good luck.
