DS1 has been seeing a speech pathologist in blocks for 2 years and about 18 months ago she introduced an OT to our appts as DS1 can't concentrate he gets easily distracted and can't focus for long. We have seen improvements but still a long way to go. I am concerned about him starting school next year (will be 5 and 1/2) as he can count but doesn't know numbers if he sees them, he only knows a few letters by sight and can only write J and H (his and his brothers inital).

I am about to take him for another eye check, as he had 1 last year but lost concentration but she thought was ok. Has had a hearing test and was fine.

Good luck it is very frustrating trying to help children concentrate and I have bene guilty of getting annoyed and shouting.
