ADHD AND CHILDREN 2

More children are being diagnosed with the Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

(ADHD). The disorder idea spread from the United States at the 1950s. It is a widespread

disorder which is neurodevelopmental. Children mostly affected are those of between 6 to 7

years. Boys are at high risk of getting affected by ADHD than girls. ADHD original name was

hyperkinetic impulse disorder. The name was changed in 1960 by the American Psychiatric

Association (APA) who distinguished the disorder as mental. The disorder was first realized in

1902. The Food and Drug Administration in the U.S. recognized the Benzedrine medicine in the

1930s though its benefit was realized later. In many cultures, children are not given the

opportunity in the ADHD debate which has seen adults from generation to generation not to have

solutions to the problem (Armstrong, 2017). Instead, they encourage learning of behavior

through learning and development seen. As seen today, global interest in this disorder has

increased. Recent research has shown that the history, traditions, and explanations have been

different in the individual countries. However, it is the role of historians and people of different

cultures to give a solution to the ongoing debate on ADHD, the legitimacy of the disorder and

the differences between societies and their beliefs that will be universally accepted

demean the hegemony of the psychoanalytic. In the third edition, it was seen that the psychiatry

of America was now in a pharmaceutical and biological period.
