This video opens up a controversial debate: whether or not medication is right for dyslexia and ADHD. According to Dr. Harold Levinson, understanding ADHD and dyslexia involves talking about how the brain is impaired during both of these disorders. The brain is not fully impaired, but rather the signals are scrambled, and this can be treated by different medications. The video notes that it is confusing why these new treatments are not being used, and that the scrambled signals should be treated.
If it's possible for this medication to work, then parents, what do you think of the idea? Our focus is on teaching brain exercises to straighten out of some of the scrambled pathways this doctor talks about, but could there be room for a mixed treatment plan? Please note, we are absolutely not taking a side on this subject, but parents, please watch this video and chime in.
