ADHD and parents

So my parents think that I don’t need help at school because I’m always the A+ kid and that I don’t fidget. The other day the lady who writes the learning plans came to me and asked me some questions. I said I like having something to fidget with as I’m a very loud person and it just helps me. So, she put that on my learning plan. All was well until my parents were reading my learning plan and getting ready to sign it when…. “She doesn’t need it.” “She’s seeking attention” “She needs to learn her times tables, not have fidget toys.” It’s been like this for years now and I now don’t ask for things that help me in case my parents don’t like it.
