They talk about the behavioral symptoms, the varying degrees of severity and prevalence in today’s society. They talk about how to evaluate whether kids are functioning well socially in two categories: attention and impulse control. When is intervention/treatment needed? Dale and Alice also discuss different treatment options including medication and neurofeedback and how can parents support their children with ADHD. Alice concludes with reminding listeners that our Father is the perfect parent— extending grace, love and patience to our children. He sets the perfect example for us all.
