Normal
Development
Many symptoms of AD/HD
occur in normal children from time to time. However, in children with
AD/HD, the symptoms occur very frequently and in several settings, at home,
at school, or visiting with friends.
Signs of AD/HD
Children with AD/HD
often have difficulty playing quietly and they may talk excessively. They
often behave in an inappropriate and uninhibited way, blurting out answers
in class before the teacher’s question has been completed, not waiting their
turn, and interrupting often or intruding on other’s conversations or games.
Other
Developmental Possibilities
It is important to have
an accurate diagnosis in order to receive the best possible treatment.
There are medical conditions that can mimic the symptoms of AD/HD. It is
also important to remember that other conditions can be present along with
AD/HD.
