Abstract:
Lots of kids have times when their behavior seems difficult to manage. But children with ADHD have frequent and severe symptoms of hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention. They also struggle with "executive function skills"--organizing which tasks to start first, managing their time, finishing a task, and keeping track of tools for the task.
