(2) ADHD only affects school performance.

ADHD impacts a child’s functioning in all areas of his life, not just the classroom. Inattention interferes with his ability to complete tasks and follow directions; impulsivity leads to conflicts with parents and friends, as well as dangerous behaviors. Teenagers with ADHD are at higher risk for auto accidents, substance abuse, unprotected sex, and brushes with the law.

(2) 專注力不足及過度活躍障礙（ADHD）只會影響在校表現

專注力不足不但會影響小朋友的課堂學習，還會影響其日常生活。不能集中注意力會阻礙孩子聽從指令及完成日常任務；而衝動會引致與父母或朋友發生衝突，甚至出現危險行為。有專注力不足的青少年會發生車禍、濫藥、不安全的性行為，甚至違法行爲的風險較高。
