FAQ re: ADHD (#1)

 

 


Is it true boys have ADD/ADHD more often than girls?

The longer answer – girls may be under diagnosed because they typically display less severe social problems. Boys are more risk of developing almost any childhood behavioural or emotional problems except depression and eating disorders.
