Patient's question:
My dear son was fine when he was three or four, not considered mischievous. But since a year ago, he frequently fights with other little friends and doesn't listen when we talk to him. He often makes small disturbances in class. The doctor told us it's attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Now, I would like to ask what the best treatment for ADHD is?Doctor's answer:
ADHD is a common mental illness in children. These children are usually of normal intelligence but exhibit inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity, and poor self-control, which are inconsistent with their actual age and thus affect their learning.Suggestions:
First, children with ADHD are not sick; they should not be discriminated against or fought with, to avoid worsening their trauma.
Second, medication must be prescribed for children with ADHD, but medication cannot replace education. Medication can provide a good educational environment, and the role and side effects of medication should be understood correctly.
Third, to achieve good results, cooperation is necessary among four aspects (children, parents, teachers, and doctors).
