Six year old boy sent home from school for cursing, teacher mentioned she thinks he may be a candidate for medication...

Six year old son has been struggling at kindergarten, repeatedly being disruptive, saying potty words, acting out for attention, he showed his butt to another boy, gets possessive over legos, messes up other kids’ work, etc. This is all “normal” stuff, but the frequency, despite repeated interventions by us as parents, discipline charts, rewarding good behavior, taking away things when he does poorly, etc. we don’t seem to be making improvementWhen I picked him up today, the head of the school said that they love him, he is excelling academcally, they think he is a loving kid, he’s not mean spirited, but the level of lack of impulse control, she said she felt like it’s someone with diabetes, he just cannot help himself, and she recommended we talk to the pediatrician about medicating himI know there are risks, but if the pediatrician recommends that, I think we would say yes, but I would love to hear others’ experiences. We talked previously to his pediatrician, and implemented what he recommended, the consistency, consequences, etc. so it may now be to that level that we have to either medicate, go to some behavioral specialist, etc....I feel I am running out of time, in that, logistically, this will interfere directly with him getting into a really great school next year, and even if he got in, if he is behaving like this, even the current school said, our lives as parents would be really difficult if he is “in the big leagues” at this other school, and getting in trouble as much as he is now. So now we have to go to plan B, a lesser private school, or public school. If he is advanced, even bored at this really good kindergarten, it could be a disaster in a public school with large class sizes, etc. But is that better than getting kicked out of the great school, when maybe he just needs a few years to develop, with meds or not, then apply to that school later....Of course, I am blaming myself, thinking all kinds of drastic thoughts that I have ruined his life, but I suppose all that matters is what is best for him, I can deal with myself....Thanks via /r/Parenting http://bit.ly/2HHbwzi
