Take Care of a Friend With ADHD

Do you have a friend who has ADHD? If you do, read on.

Steps

 * 1)  Make sure its ADHD, and not that they're just really hyper. My friend trusted me so much she just told face forward. If they tell you not to tell anyone, don't tell. It's rude and you're publishing someone's private life.  [[Image:Handle Teasing Step 3.jpg|center|550px]]
 * 2) Defend them against bullies. Kids with ADHD usually tend to stand out a bit more than other kids. This usually starts verbally bullying. But defend your friend; if they call him/her a freak, say something back like better then being a bully.  [[Image:Have Good Communication Skills Step 2.jpg|center|550px]]
 * 3)  Understand their feelings. You don't want to hurt their feeling just because their emotions are kicking in. Try to support their feelings and if their bad ones, grab them out of him/her.  [[Image:Have Good Communication Skills Step 5.jpg|center|550px]]
 * 4)  When they're lonely, go cheer them up. These type of kids generally don't have a lot of friends so make friends with them. If they don't have anyone to talk or play with during recess, play with them!  [[Image:Have Good Communication Skills Step 1.jpg|center|550px]]
 * 5)  Help them with school work. Kids with ADHD usually drift off easily and can miss a lot of work. When you see them daydreaming, wake them up. Help them by letting her/him copy the missed notes. Or tutor them!  [[Image:Stop Being Fake Step 2.jpg|center|550px]]
