> My child has difficulty sitting still

This is like every 6 year old lol. I bet you I would have been diagnosed with ADHD if I was tested, but in truth I was just an active kid who didn’t like sitting in a classroom chair all day.

There is definitely a difference between ADHD not sitting still and normal kid not sitting still.

My kid was continuously falling off his chair because he was creating a tension bridge between his chest on the edge of the table and his feet on the seat of his chair.

It was driving his kindergarten teacher crazy lol.

Related: it was a 15 minute doctor visit for us, but both me and my wife have ADHD so the doctor looked at the survey and said "boy howdy, I think you guys know what you are talking about"
