[QUOTE="runawaybunny, post: 399836"] [B]ADHD stops children being able to switch off daydreaming brain - The Telegraph[/B] Researchers found that they physically find it harder to switch off a "default setting" of the brain designed to pass the time when not focused on a task. This means their thoughts are more likely to wander at random or daydream when they should be concentrating. The study, by the University of Nottingham, may explain the physical process behind ADHD sufferers lack of ability to concentrate on the job at hand. "You could say that children with ADHD are easily bored but this shows there is a biological basis to it," said the study leader Professor Chris Hollis. [/QUOTE]
