The cause of the stubborn child has been revealed.
On the 27th, the story of a first grader who cannot hold back and acts out when angry was shared on Channel A's 'Today's Parenting: My Precious Child'.
The mother said that the child has not once returned home properly in the 3 months since entering school. The stubborn child insisted, "I'm only going to do until the third period tomorrow," and the mother said she would not move in front of the school, but the stubborn child did not yield.
That night, the mother and father attempted to talk with the stubborn child. However, the stubborn child was not focused on the mother's words and instead yawned and acted indifferent. The stubborn child said, "I can’t understand because you talk too much, mom."
The mother said that the stubborn child was diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) in April of last year and has been on medication for a year, but the symptoms have not improved.
Dr. Oh Eun-young noted, "If ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is accurately diagnosed, medication is the most precise treatment," and said, "It seems that the stubborn child has not missed the treatment timing and would have used the medication well, but if it's not helping, it might be necessary to approach it from a different angle."
The stubborn child insisted on staying in the car while going to the supermarket with the mother and father. However, the mother and father said it was unsafe. The stubborn child even ended up surprising them by trying to negotiate for a toy and a snack once they arrived at the supermarket.
Dr. Oh Eun-young highlighted, "The biggest reason the stubborn child does not listen seems to be stubbornness. The stubbornness is too strong. It’s not just stubbornness but at the level of being unreasonably stubborn," and pointed out that it seems necessary to understand why the stubborn child behaves this way.
Meanwhile, on that day, Dr. Oh Eun-young carefully analyzed the stubborn child's video and diagnosed that the child has 'congenital Asperger syndrome'. The mother and father showed gradual changes by working together and studying for the child's social skills.
