        abstract = {ADHD is the most common psychiatric disorder of children according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders [DSM-V]. ADHD encompasses a range of behaviours that disrupt social standing. Typically, Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder is marked by impulsive actions, difficulty maintaining attention and hyperactive tendencies. Research indicates that the primary traits of ADHD evolve as individuals mature, suggesting that regardless of how it is classified, ADHD appears to diminish during adulthood. Across this lifespan hyperactivity-though still noticeable -becomes less pronounced. To diagnose specific symptoms, a thorough background or family history is essential. This paper provides an extensive overview of current knowledge surrounding ADHD in children, highlighting diagnostic criteria, assessment tools, and emerging research trends and treatment options. Additionally, it emphasizes future directions for addressing this increasingly common disorder in children. This paper also addresses the difficulties associated with early diagnosis and underscores the significance of inclusive education and collaborative approaches to support children affected by this condition.},
