My Son Cannot Focus – Must Know Guide for Parents

by MommyPottyTraining on May 18, 2010

What can have happened? What is in the environment, kids’ food that has made the number of cases of ADHD to skyrocket in the last ten years? These are really important questions. The most typical symptom of ADHD is lack of focus and most parents of ADHD kids say ‘my son can not focus’.

The question of focus was even brought up recently in the British Parliament when an MP put forward some research which suggests that increased use of Internet might be a possible cause of ADHD. Why could this be true? More research needs to be done, obviously, but it has been pointed out that on the internet relationships don’t need a sensitivity to the inflection of the voice, eye contact, tone of voice or body language. Too much time on the web could mean that the child is not going to concentrate simply because of the ease of instant gratification obtained by the media. The same goes for texting and cell phones.

Many parents are unaware or merely overlook that when they complain that ‘my son cannot focus’ they are forgetting the fact that occasionally hyperfocus comes into play and they forget about this. The truth of the matter is that kids with ADHD frequently have widely diverse levels of inattention and this can go from one extreme of complete inattentiveness to that of a hyperfocused state where the activity is so riveting for the toddler, that he becomes oblivious of everything else around him.

Frequently boring and required tasks like homework will have no appeal for the ADHD toddler simply because it doesn’t give the instant gratification that other tasks or activities give, for instance a movie or computer game. ‘My son can’t focus’ is not going to just consist of a lack of attention to detail or forgetting his schoolbag. It seems to be a a lot more complex issue.

When and if ADHD is diagnosed, there will probably be a lot of sorts of treatment competing for your attention. You may not wish to blast your child’s brain with powerful mind altering psychostimulants for example Strattera and Ritalin which can have some nasty side effects for example chest pains, irregular heart beat, blurred vision, liver damage and at times even stunted growth. What with regards to ADHD natural remedies which will use non addictive ingredients in a gentler remedy which will increase concentration, memory and will calm your child? The toddler  who won’t concentrate will be a thing from the past. You can find no side effects either. Soon, you will not be repeating the complaint that ‘my son cannot focus’.
