Early Childhood research topic: Children with Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Three related subtopics: Causes of ADHD, Symptoms of ADHD, and Treatment for ADHD
I chose the subtopics that related to ADH research topics because it is important information needed to be able to research and learn more about children with ADHD.
I think it is important to know the causes of ADHD. I think that a lot of parents do not understand or know what may cause their child to have ADHD. I am a parent of 3 boys and I have a child that has been diagnose with ADHD and the only thing I knew at that time was that my child was hyper and had a hard time being still. The first thing the doctors wanted to do is put my child on medication. I needed research and I needed answers, so I started doing my own research.
Symptoms of ADHD are very important when I child has been diagnosed. Knowing why your child is doing and reacting a certain way can help you understand some of your child’s behavior. A few signs of ADHD that I found that were helpful and notice in my child was difficulty sustaining attention, did not seem to listen, difficulty playing quietly, talked excessively, interrupt or intrude on others, easily distracted, and did not finish tasks. Children with ADHD also may struggle with low self-esteem, troubled relationships and poor performance in school.
This topic hits home to me and I would like to more about ADHD. I am a mother, and a social worker that deal with children on a daily basis and feel that it will help to know and be able to understand children that have this disorder.
