Teens with ADHD and Their Special Needs

The symptoms of children with ADHD may continue to manifest even as they enter adolescence. To some, if left untreated will eventually be carried out until adulthood. Those with predominantly inattentive symptoms are commonly to experience such manifestation of symptoms. This is for the reason that they are not essentially disturbing or disruptive at home or even in school. For these children, ADHD becomes more obvious especially as they grow and their academic level and responsibilities increases.

To teens with ADHD, these years are challenging and difficult for them to deal with. The hyperactivity of the child usually decreases as the child ages. However, to teens with ADHD that continues this hyperactive behavior may undergo restlessness and would try to do many things on one occasion or at once. They would choose to do a responsibility or activities that they can do in a lesser time possible rather than doing things that would take too much effort and time that would just delay their rewards. The teenagers that are at school usually struggle or put great effort a lot with the activities they do wherein they are more expected to be independent.
