If we talk about ADHD very quickly in a
kid, so we know that very young kids
between the ages of three and five, then
in some of those kids, very intense
behavior therapy can be very, very
effective for ADHD.
But after that, if you're not giving
them medication, you're really doing
them a disservice if they really have
ADHD. Not every kid that struggles
with their learning or that has a hard
time sitting or that has behavior issues
has ADHD. That's we come back to the
importance of a diagnosis right
>> and the right label. But if the
diagnosis is done by someone who's
qualified to make the diagnosis and it's
done properly,
then not giving the kid medicine for
ADHD is absolutely positively doing them
a tremendous disservice. list.
