Describe how you could tell an ADHD child and an autistic child apart from a child

without ADHD or autism.

thorough answer will discuss how these symptoms manifest in social and academic difficulties
that persist into adulthood. An impressive answer will also emphasize the difference of a
"problem child" whose temperament is simply difficult.
