I recently met a wonderful boy. He stood next to his mother, but all of him, as it were, was everywhere. Hands, legs, head – lived their own separate lives.

And the mother of such a baby, after a whole day of empty running around and trying to calm an excessively mobile child, feels like the heroine of a cartoon about little monkeys.

Is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) a mental disorder? What is child hyperactivity, where does the attention deficit come from and how to raise a restless child – said psychologist Yulia Konovalova.
