Hello, it is a pleasure to answer your question for you: ADHD, also known as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, is a common behavioral problem in children. It is also referred to as minimal brain dysfunction or minimal brain damage syndrome, or attention deficit disorder. Children with this condition have normal or near-normal intelligence but have defects in learning, behavior, and emotions. They are prone to inattention, short attention spans, excessive activity, and impulsive emotions, which can affect their academic performance.
