Review Question - QID 212330

A 8-year-old boy is brought to the clinic by his father for an annual well-check. His dad reports that he has been “difficult to handle” as he would not listen and follow instructions at home. “Telling him to sit still and do something is just so hard,” the father says. His teacher also reports difficulties in the classroom where the child would talk out of turn and interrupt the class intermittently by doing something else. His grades have been suffering as a result. Otherwise, the patient has been healthy and up to date on his immunizations. What is the best course of management for this patient?
