Information and Support Groups for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Attention Deficit Disorder is the most common childhood-onset behavioural disorder. Those affected have a greatly reduced ability to maintain attention without being distracted, to control what they are doing or saying (because of impulsive actions) and to control the amount of physical activity that is appropriate to the situation (become fidgety and restless).
