Many kids who are labeled with this disorder may be suffering from other issues such as anxiety, depression, and poor social skills. After having your child diagnosed with ADHD, you do what most parents do: you try everything in your power to improve your kid's grades. You try to get them in sports, take them to tutoring classes, and get them involved with music, theater, and art. You find a tutor or a tutor to help your kid learn. You try to get them into a special education class. You buy a tutor for your kid. You buy an expensive program for your kid. You get them tested at every opportunity for every learning disability, developmental disorder, and mental illness.
