Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I have concerns with my 7 yr old son. His teacher informed me that he is below average compared to his classmates and that he is easily distracted. He has been diagnosised with ADHD and has been on meds for about 3 yrs. It s a struggle to get him to concentrate on his homework and get it done. What am I to do and what is happening to my child? He is smart.
[|AI|]  Hi, You need to see if he is more responsive to either an increase in his current medication or a change in medication. If homework is still such a struggle that he is behind, then the medicines are not helping enough. ADHD is not related to IQ at all.  So yes he is smart, but has a deficit in being able to concentrate. It's not because he doesn't want to, It's because his brain has other strengths than concentration. 30% of kids will respond better to once class of ADHD medicines than the other. Don't give up! When he grows up and is a CEO, he can have an assistance that keeps him focused! Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
