However, I would also contend it’s not only the impact on the child that needs to be determined but also the impact of a child’s ADHD on the parents and their marriage. Of course, when an adult brings untreated ADHD into a marriage this often causes marital problems. …. “Diagnosing ADHD.” (WP 10.29.13).
