THANKS FOR YOUR QUERY.
It is normal for parents to feel helpless and confused about the best ways to handle their child in these situations. Because kids with ADHD do not purposely decide to act up or not pay attention to traditional discipline.Fortunately there are treatment options that can help alleviate the symptoms of ADHD and arm families with the tools needed to better handle problem behaviors when they arise.
No single treatment is the answer for every child with ADHD. Each child's needs and personal history must be carefully considered.
If a child with ADHD also has anxiety,
These interventions include:

Medication
Psychotherapy.
Or a combination of these two approaches.
Psychosocial interventions such as parent training and behavioral modifications have been used. A key goal is to teach parents and educators methods that equip them to better handle problems.
Group therapy and parenting education can help many children and their families master valuable skills or new behaviors.
HOPE THAT HELPS.
