A child’s birth month could contribute to ADHD

The MONTH a child is born could make them more prone to ADHD.

It almost sounds like astrology, but ABC 13 News in California reports that researchers found it has more to do with being the youngest kid in class.

They found that children born in the month of August were more likely to be diagnosed and treated for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

August-born kids are almost a year younger than some classmates, which they say might contribute to ADHD.
