Services and Supports for People with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Discussion
Frances Black (Independent) | Oireachtas source
I have a couple of questions myself, if that is okay. I have been writing furiously here. There is so much that I want to learn from the witnesses and soak up today. A lot of the questions, like the one Deputy Ó Murchú just asked, was around finding out what the witnesses would do if they had a magic wand. They have kind of told us that.
I wanted to ask specifically about ADHD in children, and the characteristics or symptoms. I am not sure if "symptoms" is the right word, if we are trying to bring about acceptance. On the characteristics of a child with ADHD, how would a parent or teacher see that in a child? What would they be looking for? That is the first question.
