Question
A three-year-old child recently shows continuous hyperactivity and stubborn temperament. Could this be a symptom of ADHD?
Answer
For children with ADHD, parents should maintain patience and avoid getting angry or shouting at the child, as this may have a counterproductive effect. Create a warm and harmonious living environment for the child to grow up in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. Education should be tailored to the child’s abilities, avoiding the blind pursuit of achievements. The main symptoms of ADHD include attention deficits and hyperactivity, often accompanied by impulsive behavior and learning difficulties. This condition usually develops before the age of 6, with obvious symptoms during the school age, and the symptoms may gradually improve with age.
