The Importance of Screening for ADHD in Girls
ADHD impacts every part of your daughter’s life. Undiagnosed, her future is at risk.
It can be difficult to distinguish between ADHD and normal “kid behavior.” It is normal for children to have trouble focusing and behaving at one time or another. However, children with ADHD do not just grow out of these behaviors. Symptoms continue, can be severe, and cause difficulty at school, home, or friends.
If you spot just a few signs, or the symptoms appear only in some situations, it’s probably not ADHD. On the other hand, if your child shows several ADHD signs and symptoms that are present across all situations, it’s time to take a closer look.
