It's often all in the family

How does a psychologist find parents with severe Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder who may need help? Track them through their children. Finding undiagnosed adults through their children works because there is a hereditary aspect to the neurological disorder, researchers say.There is an "alarming" lack of awareness of the disorder, which can persist into adulthood, say psychiatrists from the University of Pretoria in an article published in the SA Journal of Psychiatry.
