Welcome to the course! Once you start reading the articles on here you'll get a better idea of whether or not it is ADHD. However, getting a diagnosis is, in my eyes, a good thing IF your child has ADHD. Without a DX he is likely to be labelled as naughty/lazy/trouble/dreamy etc. At least when you KNOW there is a medical issue behind his behaviour, you and his school etc can start finding strategies that work. Schools can also sometimes get funding for extra support when a child has a diagnosis. Even if your son doesn't have ADHD, if his behaviour is challenging you'll find lots of tips and advice to help improve things for him and you. Good luck!
