Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD, is one of the most common and possibly over diagnosed childhood disorders today. It affects boys more than girls at a 4:1 or higher ratio.

ADHD typically develops before a child is seven with symptoms often becoming less severe with age. Often, a child with ADHD has been exposed to abuse or neglect, been through multiple placements or disruptions early in life, been exposed to toxins either through the environment or while in utero, or had a severe infection.
