Title
Read each question carefully and completely. Take as much time as you need to reflect on each question. This tool is of no help to you if you refuse to answer each question honestly. Answers are completely confidential. No personal information is requested and your answers are not saved. Remember, if you cheat, you're only cheating yourself.
Because all children behave these ways at times, only answer 'Yes' if your child has had the symptom often and consistently for at least 6 months, it started before the age of 7, he/she behaves this way both at home and elsewhere (school, church, etc.), it affects the child's ability to function normally, and the child does not have another disorder that may cause the symptom (autism, depression, personality disorder, etc.).
