Dr. Oh Eun-young delivers a shocking diagnosis to a child struggling with impulse control.
On the upcoming episode of Channel A's 'My Golden Kids,' airing on the 17th at 9 PM, the story of an 'ADHD mom who can't understand her ADHD third-grade son' will be revealed.
In the studio, a child with idol-like visuals appears, drawing admiration from the cast. However, this charming first impression quickly fades as the child struggles to control impulses in daily life, leading to complaints from school and academy.
In the observation video, the child is seen losing focus during a writing class. Initially appearing to concentrate on reading, the child suddenly disrupts the class by banging on the desk. The behavior escalates to the point where the child appears drowsy, unable to keep their eyes open or maintain posture, raising suspicions of narcolepsy. Dr. Oh observes this and delivers a shocking analysis, describing it as a state where 'the brain isn't waking up,' highlighting another hidden aspect of ADHD.
The tension rises in the following video as suspicions of theft surround the child. When items belonging to academy friends go missing, the child, who has a history of taking others' belongings, becomes a suspect. Upon learning this, the mother conducts a surprise inspection of the child's belongings, discovering items of unknown origin in the pockets. As the mother continues to press for answers, the child cries out, 'I can't control my impulses,' leaving the studio in deep sympathy.
The mother's hectic daily life is revealed, adding to the shock. She appears distracted, switching from cleaning to organizing deliveries, then to tidying the child's room, and finally getting sidetracked by a photo album. When she raises her voice over an errand issue, the child, under extreme stress, has an accident. Dr. Oh criticizes the mother's failure to recognize emotional cues, delivering a twist diagnosis that both the child and the mother have ADHD, leaving everyone astonished.
