Question

Parents inquire about how to deal with their child’s ADHD, particularly the challenges they face in academic learning.

Answer

The first step in treating ADHD is to confirm the diagnosis. If diagnosed with ADHD, early intervention is essential to prevent any impact on the family and individual’s future development. ADHD not only affects academic performance but may also pose issues in employment and marriage later in life. Treatment options include medication, behavioral therapy, and family counseling, which should be tailored to individual cases.
