Kids with ADHD have more accidents — unless parents step in.
Although there’s little research to confirm it, those of us who live with kids with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder believe that they are more prone to accidents than their peers.
Prevention is the best treatment. Parents play an important role in decreasing the likelihood of injury. Parents provide medication, supervision, and super-sensitive radar about possible danger. With their help, children are much less likely to become injured.Children in preschool and kindergarten are on the move. Running, jumping, and climbing are a part of every day. Ais more likely to use poor judgment and climb too high on the jungle gym or pump too high on the swing.
Stain-proof, sturdy furniture — hard plastic or resin — can stand up to climbing, dancing, and pounding. Think IKEA, not the antique store. Keep kitchen cabinets and drawers locked. Put protective rubber edging on the ends of coffee tables, and keep extra pillows on the couch. If you have antiques in the living room, set up gates so your child can’t get at them.
