@lina778 Honestly, it's his room. You might not like how messy it is, but it's his choice. Unless there is food waste in there, I'd let it go. Pick your battles.

@jaxson No, never. I always let the fever do its thing. I also felt that giving medication that suppresses symptoms can mask something that might turn out to be serious. Just my personal opinion.

@futuredreamer That's a great point! I have a drawer full of old phones that would do this job..I just didn't think of it.

@thudomi1582 Yes that is curious, because I would have assumed that he would show the same struggles with impulse control and emotional regulation that he does at home. I don't know much about ADHD, but you say you have it and you can see the similarities in your son's behaviour. How did you...

@thudomi1582 So he's doing better in school. They aren't having problems with his behaviours?

@thudomi1582 Hi. Is your partner recognising that your son has speech problems and is he getting help for this? Getting speech therapy might be the first step in identifying other problems he may have. Is he in school? How's he doing there? Finally, diet. Cutting the junk/processed stuff...
