Confused | ADHD Information
I have a nine and half year old stepdaughter. I have a teaching degree and have had classes in college to help me recognize the signs of ADHD. Because this is a personal situation, I am not on the outside looking in so I am confused. My stepdaughter is extremely spoiled and undisciplined. I am not sure if I am confusing that with sypmtoms of ADHD. She has no focus, very easily distracted, no patience, fidgety, can't sit still, rolls around on the floor swinging her head around, very loud, terrible temper, rambles or constantly repeats herself and is extremely immature for her age. She is nine and a half going on 5. The school has never said anything about her possibly having ADHD. Any insight from any of you would be appreciated.No one here can tell you anything. We dont know you or your stepdaughter and we are not doctors. Get her tested by a professional. Good luck.Yes, get her tested if that's what you suspect. It could be many things -
beside being spoiled - that cause her behaviors, such as sensory issue and a
trained doctor can sort it out for you.
