When is it good to test for add or adhd in a 4 yr old?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: It is sometimes difficult to determine adhd in younger children. I get concerned when a child is having more trouble with attention than others in their age group, having trouble learning, and having problems at home and school (not just in one setting). See your pediatrician to talk about your concerns. The first steps are frequently some behavior modifications which your doctor can recommend.
