That's not what ADD is.
- tekknik 3y agoyes it is. and when you grow up with short form videos being your form of entertainment you’re just teaching kids to have short attention spans.
- lewispollard 3y agoNo, it isn't. ADD (now classified as Inattentive type ADHD) isn't having a "short attention span", it's a huge swathe of neurological symptoms of which having a short attention span might be one, sometimes - but it isn't the defining characteristic. The name of the disorder is misleading. ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder, like schizophrenia and autism, and isn't something that can be induced through forms of entertainment (though those predisposed to the disorder genetically may find symptoms worsen through them).
