DeeAnn was talking to me in the car on the way home from Family Home Evening. She was saying that you have to be very specific when you are talking to someone with A.D.D.. She was refering to a conversation that was going on early that evening.
Spencer spoke up and said, "I have ADD."
We were kind of suprised at the confident manner in which he declared this.
We said, "Well, yeah you might." We had discussed the idea that he might have A. D.D., but not in front of him before.
Spencer piped up, "No, I do have ADD."
DeeAnn asked, "How do you know? Did your teacher tell you, or what?" trying to figure this out we asked him, "Do you even know what A.D.D. is?"
Spencer said, "It's that paper that you fill out."
It was then that DeeAnn realized he was refering to paper he had recieved from his teacher. The top of the paper said ADD.... it was a math paper.
