A child affected with ADHD lacks the necessary internal restraints to control his own behavior.  He is incapable of directing himself sequentially and accomplishing a task to achieve a goal. His brain is not oriented in the manner so that it can perform this kind of intricate functions. Without the structural support meted out to him from outside, the proper functioning of his brain is disrupted.

Even with the growth of the child, the lag in the corresponding growth of inhibition and self-control becomes apparent. Although a child with ADHD is unlikely to recover fully, he can grow up into a better functioning individual through some special strategies learnt from outside.

If examined thoroughly there can be recognized within a population, quite a few people who are not as organized and focused as the others. Self-control and the ability of self-management always vary from one person to another. We do hold those people high, who masterfully coordinate and balance a number of works at a time.

In his theory, Dr. Berkley observes that due to impulsive and uncontrolled behavior of the brain, a child affected with ADHD, is barred from behaving as normally as others. Although he is capable of a number of activities, at a given moment he fails to perform properly as his unregulated response disrupts his efforts.
