ADHD is a neurobiological disorder that creates a deflection in moral behaviour. Worldwide 5.27% of children and adolescents and 4% of adults are diagnosed with ADHD. The ratio of male to female children and adolescents diagnosed is 3:1 and in adults is 1:1.
The brain capacity of an ADHD child is much smaller than a normal child. Genetics, Envionment and Brain structure are some of the factors that causes ADHD. Persistance, Pervasion and Impairement are factors used to judge if a child has possible ADHD. if a child displays 6 to 9 distruptive behaviours, over a period of 6 mths, in more than 1 location, then he should be considered for a diagnose.
