A studies have found that children who suffer from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) tend to be difficult to express himself through writing.

They tend to be difficult to understand punctuation, spelling, grammar, through handwriting. Slavica K Katusic, MD, a professor of epidemiology and pediatrics at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., said its findings.

"We analyzed 5718 children born in 1976 to 1982 in the City Rocheter. Initial research began when they were five years old. Of these, 379 of whom suffer from ADHD. There were 64.5 percent of boys suffering from ADHD showed signs of disorder in writing. Just like the boys, the girls also experience interference with the remainder of expression with the words, "said Slavica who then said that difficulties arose in the age of 19 years.

Parents, teachers and child psychologists , he continued, look less careful in looking at it. They are more interested to watch what the cause and solution of ADHD. In fact, there are other problems that arise when children suffer from ADHD.

The ability to express themselves clearly in writing is an important skill. Although computers are now more dominated the writing, but the computer does not have the ability to layout the language baik.Itulah why an understanding of writing for children should be encouraged.

This was echoed by Mark Batshaw, MD, chief academic officer at Children's National Medical Center in Washington DC. He said that this important issue that needs to be understood by all parties.

"ADHD kids have to try harder. Do not get when entering college, th ey just can not prepare reports or other tasks. Because, basically, the sophistication of the computer as it is still unable to compete with the power of human writing, "added Mark.
