What is ADHD?
ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It’s a neuro-developmental disorder that manifests as problems with focus, impulsivity, and/or hyperactivity. While it’s normal for children to be fidgety or have trouble paying attention from time to time, kids with ADHD struggle with these things on a regular basis. This can make everyday life tasks—like going to school or completing homework—very difficult
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), symptoms of ADHD can be broken down into three categories: inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms can vary from person to person and change over time. Here are some signs that your child may have ADHD
