Since preschool, children have attended pre-primary school for many months. When I entered grade 1, in addition to studying in class, my parents also hired a professor to tutor many shifts during the day. Almost every day, children study continuously from morning to night, with no time to rest or play. This schedule went on for a long time until the child showed signs of inattention, could not concentrate, and the parents took the child to the doctor.

Another case is an 8-year-old boy, from Hanoi, who was determined to have hyperactivity, but his family did not have enough conditions for medication, nor did he have enough attention, making treatment difficult. .

According to doctor Thao, this boy is quite naughty, can work continuously from morning to 2 o’clock at night. In particular, he showed signs of behavior disorder, beat his younger brother, was irritable, often argued with adults, and his learning ability was severely reduced…
