Question
The son of the neighbor who is always on the move has now started elementary school, but recently I’ve noticed that the neighbor’s mood has been poor. He says his son is particularly disobedient at school. He used to be a good student, but now he never listens properly. It was only after checking that we found out he has ADHD. What are the treatment methods for ADHD?
Answer
While some children may be very active, resembling the symptoms of ADHD, they are not necessarily ADHD. What conditions lead to a child being diagnosed with ADHD? Firstly, the age characteristic is that children are young, lively, and active, which is their nature. This is one of the most obvious external differences between children and adults. Conversely, what is truly concerning is when a young child remains as calm and still as an adult. The key is guidance; don’t let go. Parents are a child’s first teachers, so you should pay attention to your own actions and words. Although there is some degree of self-healing ability, there is no treatment that can make the situation worse, and with such fierce social competition, you won’t want to fall behind at the starting line.
