As the saying goes, charge for five minutes and discharge for ten hours. If there is an energetic child in the family, then parents do not have to do anything else, and it is enough to clean up after the baby's ass every day.
Toys are everywhere in the house, there is no place to walk in the living room, as soon as I enter the study, I start rummaging, I get food and I mess around, and I run crazy as soon as I go out. Dad chasing in front and mom shouting in the back couldn't stop this child running around.
When faced with such a child, I believe that most parents will come up with an idea: My child will not have ADHD, right?
ADHD said: How is it my back again!
So, what exactly is ADHD? What is the difference between a child with ADHD and a lively child? How can I tell if a child has ADHD? #儿童多动症 #
What exactly is ADHD?
ADHD is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that usually begins in childhood and is characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms may persist into adulthood and affect daily life, school, and work.
The exact cause of ADHD is currently unknown, but research suggests that genetic factors may be an important factor, and environment and lifestyle habits may also play a role in the development of the disorder.
What is the difference between a child with ADHD and a lively child?
There is a clear difference between children with ADHD and active children. While both exhibit high levels of dynamic vitality, children with ADHD can exhibit uncontrollable hyperactivity, impulsivity, easy distraction, and lack of self-control behavior. These behaviors can negatively affect a child's learning and interactions in the school and home environment.
Active children are more able to control their behavior in the corresponding environment and maintain moderate activity and concentration. Such children develop a strong interest in various sports and play activities, but do not interfere with their academic and social life.
Another major difference is that children with ADHD often exhibit poor concentration, poor organizational skills, and poor plan execution skills. These characteristics affect their performance in class and behavior in everyday life.
In addition, children with ADHD tend to be more susceptible to self-perception and emotional disorders. For example, they may feel frustrated and emotionally unstable about their performance, and this unstable mood may affect their learning, behavior, and interpersonal interactions.
Therefore, although children with ADHD and active activity exhibit similar characteristics to some extent, the behavior of children with ADHD tends to be more extreme and excessive. Parents and teachers should pay close attention to the child's behavior, detect the child's abnormal behavior in time, and carry out treatment.
How can I tell if a child has ADHD?
To tell if a child has ADHD, parents need to observe their child's behavior and daily performance, and here are some signs that may indicate the presence of ADHD:
1. Inability to stay quiet and focused. Children often feel upset while doing homework or participating in class activities and are unable to keep quiet. Their attention span is difficult to sustain and may be disturbed by the events around them, causing them to lose focus.
2. Excessive action and impulsivity. Your child may have difficulty sitting for long periods of time in class and will often get up and move around. They exhibit impulsive behaviors such as not being able to stand still, taking risks and exploring new things.
3. Difficulty communicating, coordinating and planning. Children may have difficulty communicating and coordinating, especially with teamwork. They may lack planning and organizational skills.
4. Mood swings and irritability. The child will exhibit emotionally unstable and irritable behavior and may become irritable and irritable when mood is high.
These behaviors may be signs of ADHD, but they are not necessarily evidence of ADHD. The final diagnosis still has to be evaluated by professional doctors!
Parents can give their children a first at home and determine whether their children have ADHD first.
This screening scale is based on the US Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-5), combined with relevant literature. It is an initial screening tool for identifying ADHD in children and can provide you with a certain professional reference.
