Question

Lately, I’ve noticed that my child can’t seem to stay still. They keep tapping the table and rocking the chair while eating, and no matter how many times I tell them to stop, it doesn’t work. I suspect they might have ADHD. What are the effective treatment methods for ADHD, and how can one treat it to see improvement?

Answer

Children with ADHD generally have normal intelligence but exhibit significant behavioral and emotional deficits. Most children struggle to maintain focus or have a very short attention span; they are overly active; prone to impulsiveness, making it difficult to get along with others; and often perform poorly academically. ADHD not only causes physical harm but also psychological trauma. Therefore, parents must carefully observe their child’s condition and seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
