My company offers 6 months full pay for mothers and 4 weeks for fathers. There is also good leave for going through fertility treatments and experiencing a loss but I can’t remember the details.

2 weeks paternity

OC&C is moving to equalised parental leave (6 months) next year

Hey everyone. I am not an ADHD consultant, but mom to a 6 year old who is very likely ADHD (we will be starting the diagnosis process soon). I wanted to hear from anyone who was also diagnosed as a young kid on any advice you have for me? Knowing what you do now, would you recommend meds for a 6 year old (if it comes to that)? What other solutions/therapies can I use with my kid? Please, any advice is welcome!
