Well what do they want our chrildren to do after all they have been running around for how long,Then they want them to sit and listen all at once . Now that is  hard for any child.  My grandson haas ADHD. His Mom had ADD. She had a hard time of learning stuff in school. He has had a hard time trying to cope with all the negativeaty that the teachers and other cchildren give him. They put him to the back of the room or right by the teacher. They arent very nice to him and then when he asks for help cause he dosen't understand  what to do first. That makes him really upset when he can't figuer it out. The teacher says why aren't you getting your work,or why haven't you finished your work. The chrildren are very smart its just hard to work things out for themselves. The teachers don't have time to help them. like they need to.They want tro label them stupid, don't care etc.I am not trying to upset anyone ,I am just trying to tell you what i have witnessed my grandson getting at school . He is a beautiful child smart.and creative. The only thing i can say is be his advocate to help him . The chrildren arent the schools property, They are ther to help and teach them. Read all you can about ADHD.All chrildren aren't the same.God bless each and everone that has a child with adhd or is and adult with it. Bc.
