just a few questions.first i was just wondering at what age should you start suspecting your child fmhaving ADHD?what are some of the symptoms other than the child just being "hyper"?my son is 21months and I think he is a typical boy but other keep saying when he gets a little older i should get him tested b/c he is very active and hyper.

ADHD

My nephew is 14 months and hes hell on wheels but thats just the way they learn ,please dont put him on meds, hes too young for that ,maybe he just needs more activity during the day. meds for babies is bad

Oh no I have no intention on putting my baby on meds that would definately be a last resort, I am hoping that he will just grow out of it, I was just concerned tha there was something going on b/c so many people are telling me that he seems like he has ADHD. he is outside a lot during the day weather permitting so I am just a worry wart mom I guess....

LOL you sound like my mom, a worry wart. But thats a good thing it shows a true deep love for your child. As far as the ADHD. The world today is to hyped on blaming everything on a disorder. I personally dont believe in all of this stuff. Your children just sound like normal children to me. When i was a kid i used to be on the move 24/7. I never sat, even when it would rain outside i would want to go out. Theyre kids, thats the way kids are. And you know what its a good thing, would u rather have him sit in front of the tv all day and get fat? lol blatently said. but do you get my drift here? I was very active, and i still like to be and i have a 3.4 gpa in college even while i work 24 hours a week. they will grow up and learn how to balance everything. I wouldnt worry

My little sister is 7. When we thought that she had ADHD when she was little the doctors said that she would grow out of it too. But she never did now she is on Concerta. A different type of Riddilin. My mom and step-father were afraid of putting her on Ridilin. So they have her on Concerta. I think that is what it is called.
