In the past it was thought that children with ADHD would exceed London hyperactive part of ADHD often is better right now, so that many thought that the other areas of the problem would be even better. We now know that this is not true. Many adolescents may be less "hyper" but still restless and be impatient. Also many of the other symptoms continue to complicate their lives. For some symptoms of ADHD children can't even show until they become teenagers. If you are smart enough, they could probably have done through elementary with little trouble with their tasks and projects that were not long or intense.
