Does My Teenager Have Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)?

Have you ever wondered if your teenager has ADD? Signs of ADD can include:  being easily distracted by sounds or motions, forgetting appointments, losing track of time, forgetting where things are, forgetting tasks including homework or chores, short attention span, trouble remembering things learned, frequent daydreaming or trouble focusing or remembering things in general despite having a desire to do so. If you are concerned that your teenager has ADD, it is good to get a professional opinion as there are good treatment options, both with medication and with therapy which can teach your teen techniques to help them manage their symptoms without medication.
