Abstract
Clinicians caring for children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) must be prepared to answer questions about the disorder and its treatment from parents who are unfamiliar with ADHD, as well as those who have been exposed to information and misinformation about it. In this article, we provide evidence-based responses to common questions and concerns that parents and guardians have about their child's ADHD diagnosis and treatment options.
