As shown in the video, she has a very different brain than others. She gets distracted easier, and cannot focus on simple tasks like getting ready for school.

It causes children not to be able to focus, as well as lash out at any given time. This condition is diagnosed and treated regularly. Children struggle in school, as well as socially, and have low self-esteem. They are not always understood by teachers as well as the other children in the class, so the children do not have as much social life as other kids do.

This condition should be more recognized throughout the US. Children should not need to put down on themselves just because they have trouble learning and focusing. Even though ADHD is treatable, children still need to deal with it for a while. If parents and teachers were more understanding and patient with these children, they would get a better learning experience. One suggestion that I have after watching all of these videos is that there should be some sort of calm down area for the children to sit and calm themselves, this way, they could try to start managing their ADHD on their own, and it wouldn't take away from the learning of the other kids in the class.]]> 2020-11-19 13:22:32 UTC https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941142923 23vonloeserr https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941150837 2020-11-19 13:24:38 UTC https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941150837 23vonloeserr https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941153935 2020-11-19 13:25:28 UTC https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941153935 23vonloeserr https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941156528 2020-11-19 13:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941156528 23vonloeserr https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941168829 2020-11-19 13:29:16 UTC https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941168829 23vonloeserr https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941179131 2020-11-19 13:32:01 UTC https://padlet.com/23vonloeserr/oq2l1nwybe7skoi8/wish/941179131
