If your child is currently on medication this likely could be the cause. The most popular category of drugs used to treat ADHD are stimulants. Stimulants can cause a lack of appetite; this is not serious by itself but if they are not eating enough they could suffer stunted growth and/or illness for a lack of nutrition. You can consult with your doctor to lower the dosage, or plan a larger meal for breakfast and allow nighttime snacking when the medications wears off.

Do teenage boys with ADHD have to pay more for car insurance?
I have not seen a case where a child with ADHD has been charge more for auto insurance that any child of the same sex and age. This is a good question because the auto application does ask if any drivers have any disability and ADHD could be proven to cause more of a risk of an accident. Due to the attention problems that ADHD cause, and insurance company could easily make the case that a child with diagnosed ADHD would be at a higher risk of having an accident than a child without such a disability. I believe that insurance companies would have to reduce the rates of children without such disorder and make the rates even out in order to make it basically even to them overall but reduce those without ADHD and increase those with ADHD in order to be fair.

It affects your brain mainly.. You do not usually show symptoms of ADHD until you are about 5 or 6 yrs old. I would google it. good advice, ik.
