This happened a couple years ago, I think my son was about seven years old..

My son Roland was diagnosed with AD/HD, but because I think that too many kids are completely over medicated, I thought I’ll try to manage him with a change in diet and a lot of patiency.

Every time he started to get little hyper, I gave him a beany baby, or something else to squeeze, to get rid of his exess energy.

One time at a book store, I ran across this little stress ball and thought it would be great for my son. So I bought it.

That night he got a little a little overactive and jumped around like a jumping bean,  I’m sure everybody who has an AD/HD kid knows that this phase can be quite stressful as a parent.

So I gave him the stress ball, that I bought earlier and told him to squeeze it until he got a little of his energy out (I did some research on AD/HD and read an article by a renowned specialist, who confirmed, that squeezing something will help the child to focus)

He was very exited, because it said on the tag of the ball, that it’s unbreakable….

They don’t know MY son!

I even made some pictures of him squeezing the ball, to show my husband, when he got home. My husband is an airline pilot and gone a lot.

Roland squeezed and pulled, and all of a sudden there was a big “BOOM” and he was covered in white powder. After the initial shock, I couldn/t stop laughing…

It was a long clean up, but at least we found out, what’s in those “UNBREAKABLE” stress balls! As soon as I find those pictures, I’ll post them on my picture site.
