: My daughter is 7 and we have all the same problems.She is as sharp as a tack but getting her to pay attention is something else.Like with most people if its not interesting to her you can forget it.But if she has intrest it she applies herself 100%.her teacher seems to think I need to have her tested for ADHD but I`m having a hard time dealing with this. She can sit and watch a TV program without getting up she can do crafts for hours ....As long as she is interested.But if she has no interest she is fidgety and talks alot all the symptoms descibed earlier.But does that make her ADHD? Or do we just need to be a little firmer with her?
