At What Age Can A Child Be Diagnosed With ADHD?

Moms – Rachel Turing

Oh, ADHD. The four letter acronym, which causes new parents and teachers immediate anxiety. If you’ve ever walked into a kindergarten classroom at the end of the day on a Friday, you will know the stress of trying to get a hyperactive little one to do anything you need them to do. It seems like anyone can take a look at their squirmy and chatty child and diagnose them with ADHD because, really, they seem way less focused and organized than the other little kids. While some believe that doctors are passing out ADHD medicine like candy, others are completely unaware of the facts and reality surrounding the disorder. Does your child really have it, could it be something else, or are they just going through a rambunctious phase as they figure out the world?
