What to expect from our ADHD quiz for children & teens?

This online quiz contains a list of questions relating to real-life experiences, emotions, and challenges faced by children & teens with ADHD. Designed for 10 to 18 years old boys & girls, it may help parents evaluate if something is concerning about their kid’s ADHD behavior.

Answering these questions, consider the duration and the extent of symptoms when compared to a child without ADHD. If symptoms have only been around for less than 6 months, then it could well be another issue such as stress, anxiety or even depression.

The level may differ between every child & teen, which can make all the difference when getting a proper diagnosis. The symptoms of ADHD look different at times in teenage girls and boys. Teenage girls tend to be diagnosed with the disorder at later ages and exhibit more inattention and subtle symptoms.

You should remember that the online ADHD quiz for 10-18 years old children cannot be considered a professional or reliable diagnosis, only an indication to consult a physician or pediatrician. In order to get a proper ADHD assessment, you will need to visit a fully trained mental health professional.

This questionnaire solely serves as a starting point to discover possible answers to peculiar behavior and is based on actual tests taken to determine whether or not a child & teen has ADHD. Answering these few questions can let you correlate the results with actual testing outcomes for professional diagnoses.

Should you find that this test indicates that your kid may have ADHD, the first thing to do is NOT panic. As mentioned earlier, this ADHD quiz is not to be treated as a diagnosis for your child & teen. Only a certified professional can do that.

Your child may be going through something, often referred to as a “phase” that will likely pass. So, instead of panicking the better option would be to take your child to their pediatrician, your family doctor, or another professional who specializes in recognizing ADHD and its symptoms.
