ADHD is not a behavior problem. It is not the result of poor parenting or excess sugar.

It is a neurodevelopmental condition supported by decades of research. When we overlook it because a child “seems smart,” we miss an opportunity for timely intervention. These children are at risk of becoming anxious, burned-out perfectionists who internalize their struggles as personal failures.

Early identification allows us to provide appropriate support, improve outcomes, and help children build confidence in their abilities.
