It's also important.
And for kids with ADHD and Russell Barkley, who is
we consider the godfather of ADHD research.
He said that having ADHD for a lot of adolescents, you have to think of their executive functioning as being up to 30% less their chronological age.
So if you have an 18-year-old, they can have the intelligence of a 30-year-old, but have the executive functions of a 12-year-old.
And that's one of those things that when I say that to parents, they're like, okay.
That's helpful to know because sometimes they're frustrated.
