Not disciplined, not good at studying, losing your temper at every turn, teaching and not changing... The original thing behind it was "ADHD".

Xiaojun in Hangzhou has been lively and cute since childhood, and in the eyes of his parents and teachers, he is a smart child.

After entering the first grade, xiaojun had difficulty in abiding by classroom discipline. Mom and Dad began to think that they had not yet adapted to elementary school life, but after a long time, no matter how the teachers and parents educated, he still did not make progress.

During the class, Xiao Jun not only did not listen to the lecture, but also provoked his classmates and lost his temper, and the classmates were reluctant to get along with him. In order not to affect the classroom teaching, the teacher had to arrange a position in the corner of the classroom for him. Back home, "writing homework" became a "family war", Xiaojun lost his temper with his parents, and parents often quarreled because of their children.

After a professional evaluation by a child health care doctor at Hangzhou Children's Hospital, Xiao Jun suffered from ADHD, also known as "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder", commonly known as "ADHD".

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the neurodevelopmental disorders that occur in childhood, manifesting as age-inappropriate distractions, diminished attention span, indiscriminate overactivity, emotional impulsivity, and cognitive impairment and learning difficulties.

A child health care doctor at Hangzhou Children's Hospital told Xiaojun's parents: "ADHD is not a simple 'mischievous', from personal life to school to society, the impact on people may be lifelong. ”

Children with ADHD themselves are hyperactive, impulsive, procrastinating, often very lacking in self-confidence, and low self-esteem. In school, it is often impossible to complete homework tasks and lag behind in grades. Interpersonal mismatches make it difficult to make friends. Children with ADHD have tense family relationships, parent-child antagonism and quarrels.

After the doctor's explanation, Mom and Dad finally understood that Xiaojun was wrong before, he did not deliberately "make bad", but could not control his behavior.

If ADHD is diagnosed, do I have to take medicine? I heard that taking medicine has side effects, will it be bad for the child's health? This is the concern of many parents of children. In fact, if parents cooperate, they can also choose behavioral therapy.

Executive function deficits are an important manifestation of ADHD, which manifests as unplanned, unorganized, no time concept, and poor emotional management skills. Therefore, the training of executive skills can significantly improve the symptoms of children with ADHD and is a scientifically validated and recognized effective treatment for children with ADHD.

To carry out behavioral therapy, parents need to receive curriculum training, the purpose is to help children improve procrastination, inattention, impulsivity, tantrums and other behavioral problems in the family environment, improve parent-child relationship, and achieve the common growth of the family and children.

After attending a parent training course and conducting behavioral therapy for 2 months, Xiaojun has made a gratifying change - writing homework is not so procrastinating, and there are things to discuss with mom and dad. Teachers and classmates also felt the change in Xiaojun, paying more attention to concentration in class than before, no longer throwing tantrums, and everyone was willing to make friends with him.

The Department of Child Health of Hangzhou Children's Hospital recently opened a "Parent Classroom". A team of physicians, psychotherapists and professional teaching assistants bring courses such as "Parental Emotional Management" and "Child Behavior Management". Parents in need can sign up for the experience.
