Our Mama Drama question: "My seven-year-old daughter is struggling in school. Her teachers say she daydreams and is off in her own world so she doesn't get her work done. Someone suggested that she may have attention deficit disorder, but I'm not sure what that means. I've seen kids who are very hyper and have trouble sitting still, but this doesn't fit my daughter. Please help!"
