AD/HD in Children




  By: Arikka Utz
Types of AD/HD:
• - 3% to 5% of the population has AD/HD. Where as
  5% of all children have it.
• Of these 5% there are three types of AD/HD
 Types of AD/HD:            Symptoms:

 Primary Inattentive Type   The child is inattentive and
                            distractive.

 Primary Hyperactive Type   The child is overactive and
                            impulsive.

 Combined Type              The child is inattentive and
                            distractive, as well as overactive
                            and impulsive.
Symptoms of AD/HD:
-Talks excessively.
-Fidgets or squirms in their seat.
-Acts as if driven by a motor.
-Leaves their seat when they are suppose to
   remain seated.
-Runs or climbs when it is deemed
   inappropriate.
-Interrupts or intrudes on others.
-Blurts out answers before the questions are
   completely stated.
-Has difficulty waiting for his/her turn.
Differences Between Boys & Girls
             with AD/HD:
 Girls:
  - More likely to suffer from depression, low self esteem, family
   and relationship problems.
 Boys:
• -Tend to be more in denial and feel that they are doing better
   than their teacher would say they are doing. Which is why
   they seem to be less depressed with their AD/HD situation.
• -Boys are four to nine times as likely to develop AD/HD as
   girls.
A Look at AD/HD:
Video:
• http://www.teachertube.com/viewVideo.php?vid
Effects of AD/HD on Assignment
          Completions:
Causes of AD/HD:
• -No cause has been discovered but research has found that
  children with AD/HD have less volume in the frontal lube
  which controls problem solving, planning and controlling
  impulses.
• -One theory is the dopamine hypothesis. Dopamine is
  thought to be a key aspect in increasing alertness in
  motivation. It is also thought to decrease appetite and cause
  insomnia which is also a common side effect in stimulant
  drugs. Since ADHD responds so well to stimulant medications
  that increase the level of dopamine that is transmitted
  throughout the brain it is thought that a deficit of dopamine is
  a likely cause.
• -Bad parenting cannot cause AD/HD but It can aggravate the
  symptoms. It’s important to be patient and not lose your
  temper with an AD/HD child.
• -If you have AD/HD there is a 50% chance that one of your
  children will have it.
Treatments:
-There is no cure for AD/HD.

-Behavioral modification tends work the best on curbing a
   child's AD/HD problem.

-If behavior modification doesn‘t work there are medicines out
    there such as Ritalin that can help with the symptoms of AD/
    HD.
Parent Resources:
• -Library books such as “ADD&ADHD Answer Book”, by Susan
  Ashley.

• -Local support groups with other parents who's children or
  self are dealing with AD/HD.

• -Online support groups such as “Daily Strength”, where
  parents can post bulletins and discuss AD/HD related topics
  with other parents.
