republicans now have control of the senate. house speaker john boehner has the ability to get things passed through the house and senate and get them through the president's desk. he'll challenge the president to veto things he says are good for the american people. one of those things obviously is the keystone xl pipeline. we'll see motion in that in the house on friday. the white house has said

months there's been a lot of really good economic news including those low gas prices. the white house wants to tell that story a little bit better than they have. the president used to say, you know

leadership pac yesterday. what does that mean? >> he can raise money for his efforts going forward. he's starting two organizations. one is a superpac one is a pac. this is stuff he can use to help both other candidates and to build his own ability to handle advisers and things like that. >> would you say bush is the front-runner among republicans for 2016? >> i think he's certainly dictating the scheduleonths ago, a lot of people were skeptical jeb bush wanted to do this. but he's taken some very decisive steps in the last few weeks. both the establishment of this fund-raising organization and also, you know getting off of these corporate boards that could have been a problem for him. i think if you're another establishment republican somebody like marco rubio or chris christie, you're looking at that time line saying i should act quicker than i thought i was going to. >> we'll start seeing things pick up. i guess 2016 looming there in the very near future. >> and

greek life last september after a rolling stone article claimed a woman was gang raped at a frat party. fraternities have to sign on the new rules. is your child moody, dealing with behavioral problems or have trouble containing their emotions? if so you may be concerned your child is depressed. it could be something else. your child may be dealing with adhd. dr. winer is here to explain. welcome, good to see you. you know, most of us think of adhd a child not able to sit in class and concentrate or being higher active. but there are some other issues as well right? >> exactly. a lot of kids with adhd have a few problems. about 60% are very oppositional. they don't follow or respect the rules of adults. they tend to be very argument th don't take responsibility for their actions. about 25% to 50% of kids with adhd are chronically irritable. the big one i see is 75% of kids with adhd have just this problem with what we call emotional regulation. these are the kids where you just ask them to do simple things. time for you to take a bath. go brush your teeth. instead of them giving you a little bit of a look or getting a little upset, they have a blowup and a temper tantrum or meltdown that can last 20 minutes, half hour. that is a very common problem with adhd. >> are these symptoms above and beyond compounding the ones we think of as the ones of the symptoms? can the child have what you described and not just have problems in school? >> no these are problems they're going to have in addition to the typical problems. but i think some people they might see some of these issues but not maybe recognize their child is intentive, having a hard time with getting distracted frequently. a lot of people still i think only really think of that hyperactivity when they think of adhd. >> can you diagnose a child with adhd just by knowing, hearing a parent say he does this this and this? >> yes, that's the best we have. taking a good thorough history. getting collaborative reports from the teachers and outside people. because you want to have the person exhibiting the problems not just in the classroom but in a couple settings. at home at school outside of scoot. you need to talk to a bunch of different people to get a good diagnosis. >> we still don't know what causes it right? >> we don't know what causes it. there's nothing in psychiatry not a single diagnose we know with certainty what causes it. depression bipolar disorder adhd. we have theories and good treenlts but streatments but we don't know. when it comes to adhd the main culprit seems to be the functioning of the frontal lobe, part of the brai beh the forehead. the organizer or the executive for the rest of the brain that tells what parts of the brain what to do. >> is medication the only treatment at this point? >> well medication is the most effective treatment. and i really encourage people to consider medication. because it works the best. there are some behaveioral intervepgs sinter intervention really the most common thing that i hear families say is when they go on the medication those who are hesitant about going on the medication for a while, they say, wow, i just wish i had done this earlier. because things could have been so much better. who knows. maybe we would be doing better in school. we would have saved a lot of arguments around the household. >> for parents who are concerned about any medication for their children are there any negatives to taking it? >> yeah there absolutely are negatives. the positives in my opinion far outweigh the negatives. the most common side effect is appetite suppression. that's the big one. sometimes kids also have some moodiness when the medication's wearing off. they might have some sleep difficulties. they might have a little bit of blunting of their personality. but most of the time there are 20 different medications out there to treat this condition. some are stimulants. the vast majority of the time you're able to find a medication everybody's happy with. >> you and i are going to be together. we'll talk about this too coming up this weekend on sunday at the nbc health and fitness expo. we're going to be
