Alfredo

Alfredo is a 7-year-old child who has been identified as having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). His classroom teacher describes him as an intelligent boy who is often impulsive and disruptive in class. She also stated that he has difficulty paying attention even when a staff member is sitting next to him. Despite being in a very structured classroom environment, Alfredo frequently interrupts others, has difficulty remaining seated, and has recently become more verbally and physically aggressive towards both staff and his peers. Alfredo is an only child who lives at home with his mother. Alfredo’s mother describes her parenting style as relaxed and stated that he sometimes does not follow her directives at home.
