Developmental dyspraxia, or developmental coordination disorder (DCD) occurs in 30-50% or more of children and teens with ADHD and remains a highly comorbid condition even into adulthood in those with ADHD. This short video discusses this overlap or comorbidity, what the symptoms are of DCD, why it may occur at such a high rate in those with ADHD (delayed frontal cortical development), the professionals and their treatments often recommended for DCD, and some of the unmet needs of children and teens experiencing DCD.
