Timeline photos
The brain of the ADHD child is developing at an average 30?hind schedule in the frontal lobe region according to leading ADHD researcher Dr Russell Barkley.
The frontal lobe controls regulation. It is the executive function part of the brain. It is the boss, the voice in your brain, the executive assistant, that tells you what to do with what you know and learn.
Because this part is behind schedule, children with ADHD brains are not always able to access the information they know to make use of it.
