 4 boys! You sure have your hands full, with or without ADHD...LOL. I'm sure they are fun too! I'm glad you chose our group to be your support. I think we have some of the most supportive, caring members on the internet here. Make yourself at home & if you need a break after reading & posting in the serious sections, come on down to the friendship section where you'll find poems,prayers, jokes & more! |

 I think you found the right place. With all those kids and all that ADHD, you need a chance to vent and unwind. This is a great place to come for support and advice, both. |

Welcome Upmichmom, I'm on my way to help you!!!!  Gosh, 4 boys! And bless your heart for taking guardianship of the 7 year old. We have a little in common there. I had custody of my grand-niece (ADD) for a while. Anyway, it is wonderful to have you join our group.  |

Vicky...I'm quite a long way from your area. I live about 10 miles outside
of Ann Arbor in Southeast Michigan. We lovvvvvvvve going to the UP on vacation. My husband and son would live there if they could. They are BIG time hunter and fisherman. What area are you from? You never know we could have traveled through your neck of the woods a time or two.
Once again...welcome to our group!
