“Why is daily life often harder for kids with ADHD? They seem to struggle academically, socially, and psychologically. They forget things, can’t slow down, find it hard to focus, space out regularly.

While they like their creativity, their “out of the box” thinking, and their energy, they are usually ashamed of their shortcomings, want to avoid dealing with them, and often feel powerless to change them.”
