What Causes Attention Deficiency And Speech Delays In A Child?

Hi, my nephew feels the need to count his fingers over and over, he does it automatically, using his index going through all his hand fingers. he also spaces out from time to time, and he might talk to himself... he seems hyper active too in class. he feels the need to move his feet up and down while sitting in class. he had language delay but now he speaks three languages. he has short attention span and he also has problems making or keeping friends. he ends up being bullied in class thank you in advance for your feedback.
