ADHD in Kids explained : Does my Child have ADHD, Why is School a Struggle, How Is It Diagnosed?

Описание: You asked for it and we delivered.
After receiving a large number of concerns and questions from modern-day parents about ADHD in children, we knew this conversation needed space, clarity, and expert insight.

Kanika, Founder of MindPeers, sits down with Bhoomika, Clinical Psychologist at MindPeers, to unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in parenting today — ADHD and neurodivergence in children.

In this episode of Beyond the Couch, we address the questions parents, caregivers, and educators are asking but rarely getting clear answers to:

1️⃣ What is neurodivergence and how is it different from a disorder?
2️⃣ What ADHD actually looks like in children (beyond hyperactivity)
3️⃣ Why focus and behaviour can shift dramatically across tasks
4️⃣ Early signs parents and schools often miss or mislabel
5️⃣ The role of genetics, brain wiring, and environment
6️⃣ Why children with ADHD are often labelled “undisciplined” in schools
7️⃣ How ADHD is diagnosed and who can diagnose it
8️⃣ What treatment and support pathways truly look like
9️⃣ How parents and schools can support neurodivergent children
🔟 Strengths of ADHD and how the right environment can help children thrive

🎯 The goal is not to “fix” the child, but to understand, support, and empower them.
