FAQ

Questions about ADHD

Will my child grow out of ADHD?

Some children improve as they grow, especially in restlessness. Attention difficulties often continue into adulthood, which is why early support helps.

Is screen time the cause?

Screens do not cause ADHD, though too much screen time can make attention and sleep worse. ADHD is largely a developmental condition.
