Wu Yu-yu of the children's psychiatry department at Chang Gung Memorial Children's Hospital, says that hyperactive children have problems adapting to modern life. Children who are hyperactive find restricted environments frustrating and find homework pressures hard to bear. Children with attention disorders also underachieve academically.
