Question

How high is the probability of ADHD being genetic?

Answer

ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a common condition in school-aged children, with an incidence rate of about 3% to 7%, with boys being more affected than girls. This condition is not limited to childhood; up to 65% of children with ADHD will have symptoms persist into adulthood. Therefore, ADHD is considered a chronic disease that requires regular and long-term treatment. If diagnosed by a medical institution, one can begin with some training, such as sensory integration training. ADHD has a certain genetic correlation but is not an absolute relationship. Emotional issues are often related to family environment, with the emotional stability of the mother being crucial for the emotional stability of the child.
