Creativity and ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) children
Siddiqui Uzma Tahseen
Abstract:
ADHD is a behavioral disorder characterized by difficulty focusing, impulsive behaviors, and hyperactivity. It is one of the most common childhood disorders and can continue through adulthood. It usually appears early in life, often between the ages of 3 and 6. The symptoms vary from person to person. They are considered by some as ‘good for nothing’. But various researches have helped in finding the relationship between their impulsiveness and creativeness. Though not true for every ADHD child, it establishes a notion that they do show certain aspects of acceptable behavior.
