In honor of ADHD Awareness Month, let's debunk some common myths about the neurodevelopmental disorder. MYTH: Having ADHD means the person is lazy or dumb. FACT: ADHD has nothing to do with a person's intellectual ability. Some highly intelligent people have ADHD. MYTH: Children with ADHD are learning to use the condition as an excuse for their behavior. FACT: ADHD is a disability. Children with ADHD have to learn ways to deal with their symptoms that cause them to have difficulties in life. Project TEACH offers resources on ADHD, including: What To Know About ADHD and How To Support Your Child Diagnosed with ADHD: https://bit.ly/3e3k190 #ADHDAwarenessMonth #ADHDAwareness #ADHDCommunity #ADHDKids #Neurodiversity #Neurodivergent
