ADHD Is A Management Problem Not Behavior
- ADHD is primarily a problem with the brain's executive functions, not simply misbehavior.
- It affects attention control and management rather than intelligence or moral failing.

- People with ADHD often experience attention that drifts in and out like poor reception.
- This inconsistent attention makes sustaining focus on ordinary tasks especially challenging.

- A student who plays video games for hours can be laser-focused there but distracted in school.
