Patient's question:
I'd like to ask, my child is 13 years old this year. Since the age of 7, they have been attending tutoring classes, but they sit improperly, lack focus, are forgetful, and often forget things that were told to them today. However, their grades are still quite good. I want to ask, is it possible that my child has ADHD?Doctor's answer:
ADHD is a psychological and neurological disorder that manifests as inattention and short attention span, hyperactivity, and guilt, which are disproportionate to age and developmental level. It is often accompanied by learning difficulties, behavioral problems, and poor recovery. If you suspect your child has ADHD, it is recommended to take them to a pediatric department in a regular hospital for a check-up to assess the child's specific condition. There are courses that can help cultivate the child's full concentration, which can be practiced more.
