&gt; The device is about the size of a cellphone and has a wire that attaches to a patch. You place that patch on the child&#x27;s forehead and they wear it overnight...it seems to be on par with non stimulant medications<p>First, no way I&#x27;m getting my kid to put a patch on her head and keep it there overnight.<p>Second, non stimulant medications just don&#x27;t work that well for me and I doubt they&#x27;d work well with my kids. (I have ADHD too.)
