Adhd testing
Is your child struggling with time management, organization, handling their emotions, staying focused, remembering things, shifting their attention, starting tasks, or thinking before acting?
These are common signs of ADHD, and these symptoms usually affect various aspects of their life, like school, home, and activities.
ADHD symptoms in children primarily involve inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. Keep in mind that these symptoms can vary from one child to another, and some may change or lessen as children grow.
In school, signs of attention difficulties might include:
Fidgeting excessively and having trouble sitting still
Getting easily distracted
Having trouble following instructions
Jumping from one activity to another
Struggling to play quietly
Talking a lot and interrupting others
Frequently misplacing items needed for tasks or activities at school or home.
Not appearing to listen when someone is talking to them
If you recognize these signs in your child, it might be worth considering a screening, evaluation, or consultation with a professional to better understand their needs.
