Question

My child is very active, always seems to be playing no matter what they’re doing. Could it be ADHD? If so, how can we determine if it is ADHD? What should we do if it is?

Answer

Pediatric ADHD, commonly known as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, is one of the most common psychological disorders during childhood and adolescence. Some cases of ADHD may disappear as individuals grow older, but some symptoms such as inattention and impulsivity may persist. Treatment is necessary, and it should not be taken lightly.
