I've had a few kids over the years that have been diagnosed once they started school with ADD/ADHD. I had told the parents the whole time they were here that something was up but they all waited till school to get the "official" diagnoses. I also know some children with ADD/ADHD outside of my childcare.
I would say 95% of them have lighter color hair (blonde or very light, light brown) and lighter color eyes (mainly blue). Has anyone else ever noticed this with children that have these learning disorders? I have always wondered if its something to do with the genetic makeup with lighter hair/eye color?
I have another one that I think maybe on the spectrum with this and has the bluest eyes/blondest hair. Older sibling had issues and was also blonde and blue eyed.
