One of the most common mental conditions among kids is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Children with ADHD often struggle to pay attention, manage impulsive actions (doing without considering the consequences), or be highly active. ADHD symptoms usually appear at a young age and grow more apparent when a child's surroundings alter, such as when children begin school. It is more common in boys than in girls. The majority of cases are diagnosed between the ages of 3 and 7, but they can also be detected in late childhood. Although ADHD cannot be cured, early detection can help reduce symptoms.
