The dangers of ADHD in children

ADHD, also known as attention deficit disorder, is mainly characterized by hyperactivity, attention disorder and poor impulse control. In addition, there are other symptoms, such as learning difficulties, sensory dysfunction, conduct problems, social problems and other secondary problems. If not treated in time, ADHD will become more serious as the child grows older. Parents should pay attention to it if they find that their children have such symptoms, because ADHD is very harmful to children.

It is important to correctly understand the dangers of ADHD

1. Harming children's physical and mental health:

On the one hand, the disease itself poses a certain threat to the child's health and causes a certain delay in the child's growth and development. On the other hand, because the child is affected by the disease, he or she will often make some disgusting movements or do things that are not in line with the rules regardless of time and place, so he or she will be discriminated against and ridiculed. Therefore, the child's psychology is affected and a shadow is formed.

2. Affect children's learning:

Children with ADHD will show irregular daily behavior, be too active, often walk back and forth in class, and lack concentration, which causes them to make small movements in class. This leads to a decline in academic performance and affects the child's future education and development.

3. Threatening children’s social interactions:

Good interpersonal relationships are an important factor in a person's success. Communication with the outside world and even with people around is crucial to a person's growth. Therefore, establishing good interpersonal relationships has a significant impact on children's learning and life. Due to the symptoms of ADHD, children are isolated and disliked by people around them, resulting in a very narrow social interaction and communication circle for children, which affects their development and future.

Doctors remind: 4 to 12 years old is an important period for children to form their self-awareness and develop from "natural persons" to "social persons". If children are often scolded by their parents, criticized by their teachers, and laughed at by their classmates during this period, it will cause great harm to their mental and physical development. Therefore, everyone should give children enough care and support in life, and must not regulate their behavior by beating or scolding, so as to avoid leaving serious psychological trauma on them.

Experts suggest: ADHD is very harmful. When parents find symptoms of ADHD in their children, they should take them to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in time.
