As discussed in Chapter 1, it is important not to jump to the conclusion in the first place that the child's behaviour means they have a medical condition such as ADHD. It may be worth thinking through current lifestyle, contextual changes in the home, the age and stage of the child, and the expectations being held of the child before going down the path of a label such as ADHD. Parenting courses, speaking with a teacher or doctor may also provide additional information. It is important always to seek more than one opinion about issues such as ADHD and not just from one source.
