• ADHD is tied to executive functioning (time management, memory, organization).
• ADHD has a neurological and genetic basis — it’s not caused by bad parenting.
• There are different types of ADHD (inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, combined).
• ADHD often looks different in girls (daydreaming, internal struggles) compared to boys (more external hyperactivity).
• Common myths: kids with ADHD can’t focus at all, they just need to try harder, or they’ll “outgrow it.”
