Jessie is eight -- she's adorable...she never finishes anything on time...she's a dreamer. Cal is fifteen -- he is so impulsive that his parents worry he'll try drugs on a whim. <p/>What do these kids have in common? Do they remind you of your own children? <p/>The most talked-about childhood syndrome of the eighties and nineties is ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). This developmental disorder disrupts a child's life and often results in low self-esteem, poor grades and even social and emotional problems. These problems usually are not outgrown -- without help. But does your child have ADHD? <p/>ADHD is characterized by the following groups of behaviors: <p/>Inattention <p/>-- making careless mistakes <p/>-- difficulty sustaining attention <p/>-- problems with listening <p/>-- failure to finish schoolwork or chores <p/>-- difficulties organizing <p/>-- trouble sustaining mental efforts <p/>-- losing things <p/>-- being easily distracted <p/>-- forgetfulness <p/> Hyperactivity/Impulsivity <p/>-- fidgeting/squirming <p/>-- trouble staying seated <p/>-- inappropriate running/climbing <p/>-- difficulty playing quietly <p/>-- being on the go/driven <p/>-- talking excessively <p/>-- blurting out answers <p/>-- difficulty awaiting turn <p/>-- often interrupting <p/>All children display many of these behaviors at some point. But-according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association, Fourth Edition, for a child to be diagnosed with ADHD, six or more of these symptoms of inattention and/or hyperactivity/impulsivity must have persisted for at least six months. <p/>Is Your Child Hyperactive? Inattentive? Impulsive? Distractible? offers an invaluable step-by-step program already used by thousands of parents to help you change these behaviors at home. Don't just watch it happen; help your child help himself.
