[quote=Erika Lyn Smith - ADD]What is the hardest part of parenting a child with ADD/ADHD? Please feel free to share your thoughts on being an ADD/ADHD parent. [/quote] hi............. They generally lack social skills, but they may have a high IQ and be very bright.But ADHD and ADD are often confused with laziness. They are very different things, but may appear similar. I have ADD, and it is not just difficult, but impossible to keep my mind on something that doesn't interest me when I'm not on my medecine. However, when I take my medicine, I become a workaholic. However, I lose my creativity, and it is hard to have fun or have a casual conversation with someone. thanks
