Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
By Grant L. Martin, Ph.D.

Look at any classroom, in any city or town. One thing will be consistent. Some children can't sit still. Others are highly distractible, forgetful, or inattentive. Some appear sidetracked by every little thing and don't seem to learn from their mistakes. Many of these children disregard rules, even when they are disciplined repeatedly. Others act without thinking, causing accidents and bringing on repeated

reprimands. This collection of problematic features is called Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD). 

AD/HD is one of the most prevalent problems of childhood. The consensus of professional opinion is that approximately 3 to 5 percent of children have AD/HD. This translates to as many as two million school-age children. Every classroom in the country averages at least one AD/HD child! And these children are no different at home. AD/HD can make family life chaotic and stressful. No matter how hard parents of AD/HD children try to do the right thing, these children persist in daydreaming, missing homework assignments, and neglecting chores.
