Question
My child often disturbs other students in class and can’t concentrate during tutoring sessions, let alone sit still for long periods. The teacher described my child as more active than most boys, making me feel very embarrassed. How can I help my child? Are there any medications that can treat hyperactivity?
Answer
Firstly, it’s important to observe the child carefully and provide patient educational guidance. If necessary, consult a doctor for a diagnosis. If diagnosed with hyperactivity, medication treatment can be administered under a doctor’s guidance. I personally recommend the Jingling Oral Liquid, but it is a prescription drug that requires a doctor’s prescription to take. Additionally, sensory integration training can be provided for the child, and attention can be attracted through music, exercise, and other methods to help them focus. Parents should spend more time accompanying their children, participating in their activities, and helping them concentrate. With proper coordination of medication treatment and behavioral training, most children can become quieter and more focused within a short period.
