Mgt: I would suggest having another follow up assessment, perhaps with a development specialist. Behavioral therapy may help his current symptoms.

INTENSITY MATTERS: Proper labeling of a kid as ADHD is sometimes difficult.The symptoms they may have overlap with other behavioral, health and maturity issues. Most cultures don't put their kids in "sit down" school until about 6 because their nervous system is not mature enough. You can re-study the issue at any point and consult with psychologists/ child development specialists. They can help you understand him.
