Abstract

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) manifests in early childhood with symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity. The disorder is not benign as children with ADHD may experience severe impairment in daily functioning, including academic problems, disruptive behaviour and problematic relationships with parents, teachers and peers.
