ADD Diagnosis in Young Children

Greetings from the Land of OZ!

Wow, it seems like yesterday when I sent out the last newsletter! Oh! That was yesterday!

In 2011, the American Academy of Pediatrics announced the expansion of the time frame to diagnose Attention Deficit Disorder. These guidelines allow kids to be diagnosed between the ages of four to eighteen. What implications does this new diagnostic standard have for children, parents, and doctors?
