Question
What are the symptoms of hyperactivity in one-year-olds?
Answer
The symptoms of hyperactivity include poor self-control, excessive movement, and restlessness that is not appropriate for their age, involving hand, body, and verbal fidgeting. One-year-old children are typically not diagnosed with this condition because this age group is naturally very active and is also in the stage of learning to walk, with a strong sense of curiosity. Overactivity refers to an excessive response to unpleasant stimuli, leading to easy frustration and anger without considering the consequences. It is recommended to closely observe children around the age of five, especially after they start primary school.
