    reeses420 What is ADD or ADHD. Do 12 month olds scream from this if they have it?

    I can't quite remember what it stands for (Attention Dispan Hyper-activity Disorder or something like that) but I do know that it causes people to have violent outbursts. And yes 12 month olds will scream and scream and scream if they have it but it will subside after a while. If you need to know more then use Google to find a detailed disorder website. It will give you lots of information about ADHD.
    Good Luck

    That screaming may be caused by a serious medical condition such as an ear infection. Get that baby to the doctor today.

    I would like to know where you got this information. Typically 12 month olds who are screaming have something wrong with them. Screaming like this is usually caused by some sort of pain.

    I would like to know where DjZskittzoh got his/her information that a 12 month old can be diagnosed with ADD or ADHD and one of the symptoms is screaming.
