Is your child constantly on the move, easily distracted, or struggling to stay organized? While many children are energetic and forgetful at times, ADHD is more than occasional inattention or high energy.
In this episode of The Couch with Dr. Juan Santos, we explore the most common signs and symptoms of ADHD in children, how ADHD can look different from one child to another, and when it may be time to seek a professional evaluation.
You'll learn how ADHD affects attention, executive functioning, emotional regulation, and daily life at home and school. We'll also discuss common misconceptions, why boys and girls may present differently, and what parents can do if they have concerns.
Whether you're a parent, caregiver, teacher, or simply want to learn more about ADHD, this episode provides practical, research-informed guidance to help you better understand your child.
