If your child is behaving
in the age of two years than your other children i.e. he is exhausting you,
does not sit at one place, does not pay attention to your instructions and
always find him in troubles. A foster mother who had many children suffered from
ADHD said that these children are always making me tired .
And if there is any problem
of behavior in your child, what should be your next step? You will find
yourself in confusion to get your child for treatment. You can put a lot of
questions that our child has a lot of energy so why should we go for a
treatment?
Typical Milestones of Children without Child Behavior Problems
In the age of three years,
he is playing with other children and going for some sports activities.
When he is four years old, he
starts talking, engage in typical playing games, make discussions and help
others when required.
At the age of five years,
he is learning some principles and rules. He says sorry when something is done
wrongly, there are different emotions arise in various situations, provides
help to his peers, and also ask for help to his elders.
When It Is Time to Get Your
Child's Assessment
If all of these activities
are not performed and your child is above the age of five, you should go for a
treatment because your child is suffering from ADHD and you should not wait
anymore.
Go to a professional and
acquire his suggestions for diagnosis. They will probable tell you to wait
until your child is above the age of five to go for treatment and medication.
And if your child is
showing severe problems than your doctors and physician may make some
exceptions. Some defiant children need special guidance to stop development of
ODD (oppositional defiant disorder).
If your child is below the
age of seven and showing all the symptoms, you should start taking journals on
the problems of behavior of children.
Keeping a History Journal
to Record Child Behavior Problems
You should start a journal
if your child is really showing the conditions that are defined medically. The
journal will work so importantly that you can hardly imagine.
You should notice all of
symptoms and their occurrence time and places as how your child eats and
sleeps, behavior with siblings, conditions that are not controlled easily, his
or her aggression. You will have to gather all the information of his behavior
in school times, restaurants, stores and family functions in order report at
the time of professional assessment.
