Question
An eight-year-old boy is showing symptoms of ADHD, with short attention span and poor memory, and it seems he has limited comprehension when communicating. The parents want to know which hospital to go to for an ADHD check-up and approximately how much the treatment for ADHD costs.
Answer
The first step in treating ADHD is for parents to have a comprehensive understanding of this mental disorder and to explain it to their child. At the same time, parents should remind their child not to use ADHD as an excuse for being inconsistent. Parents should also inform the child’s teacher of their situation and request their cooperation in the expert’s treatment, working together to help the child overcome difficulties. In the educational process, it is important to avoid blaming and easily striking children. If children’s strengths are discovered, they should be praised and recognized promptly. Strengthening guidance and supervision over the child, reducing academic burden, and improving educational methods are crucial for the child’s daily treatment. The cost of treatment needs to be based on the child’s current condition.
