Question
My son has had ADHD for over a year now. He’s hyperactive and easily irritable, causing trouble all day long, never staying still. With our family’s limited financial situation, how much does it cost to effectively treat pediatric ADHD?
Answer
ADHD commonly occurs during childhood and is characterized by significant difficulties with attention, short attention spans, and hyperactivity or impulsivity. Children with ADHD should receive disciplinary education and encouragement. When they receive behavioral therapy, they should be rewarded. They should not be subjected to mental pressure, nor should they feel guilty or face corporal punishment. Establishing a routine, developing good habits, and helping them overcome learning difficulties while continuously boosting their self-confidence are important. You can consult local hospitals for specific cost information.
