You are ELEVEN and a Half years old- not 3. Why did you think it was ok to draw a smiley face on my living room sofa?!?!?!?! In ink?!?!?!?!?
There's not enough wine in the house right now.....

Ugh, my 4 year old did that once... both couches and writing HUGE "M's" for her name. I cried for an hour. I think I got it out with rubbing alcohol.
Been there. Sooooo been there. ... Even the 3 year old and 4 year old in our house don't act like she does sometimes. ADHD can suck.

I'm with you!! My 9.5yo (also ADHD) put stickers on his new desk yesterday. When I finally scraped them off, I discovered they were put there to hide the smiley face he'd drawn in ink...
I guess it goes with the word "roar" that he wrote on the mini-blinds.
It doesn't even end at 11?!
Thank you for the commiseration. What is it with ADHD and doodles?? She doodles all over her school work. This morning I found a heart scratched into her desk... I had my physical appointment and my (usually low) blood pressure was 140/80. The doctor asked what was wrong and then laughed when I told him. I guess it will be funny at some point?!?!?
DD is 12 in a few weeks, and shows no slowing down for the inappropriately placed doodling/coloring/drawing.... and, more annoying for me, the *picking*. Her toes, the walls, her clothes, her bedding, my clothes. Holy cow, it's almost as annoying as the baby's nipple-twiddling people that aren't his mother! LOL
