What are the signs for ADHD?
• are restless, fidgety and overactive • continuously chatter and interrupt people • are easily distracted and do not finish things • are inattentive and cannot concentrate on tasks • are impulsive, suddenly doing things without thinking first • have difficulty waiting their turn in games, in conversation or in a queue. This type of behaviour is common in most children. It becomes a problem when these characteristics are exaggerated, compared to other children of the same age, and when the behaviour affects the child’s social and school life.
