6 y/o boy communicates his needs while talking about ADHD and school difficulties

WooGlobe

Endearing footage has surfaced of a six-year-old boy explaining his struggles.   &quot;Jaxon has a diagnosis of ADHD, language and processing disorder, and is on the pathway to an ASD diagnosis,&quot; the filmer, Lauren, told WooGlobe. &quot;This video was taken at his previous mainstream school when he was six years old and serving a lunchtime suspension.   &quot;Although he had a 1:1 and some great provisions in place, he still struggled with the mainstream environment. At lunchtimes, without his 1:1, he would try to escape by climbing fences or trees to get away from the noise and busyness. The school’s solution was to suspend him at lunchtime, so I had to pick him up and then bring him back once lunch was over.   &quot;In this video, Jaxon brilliantly describes his struggles and communicates what he truly needs.&quot; WooGlobe Ref : WGA123699 For licensing and to use this video, please email licensing@wooglobe.com
