Modern research has given us a really clear picture of what causes ADHD. So what causes ADHD? Is it genetics, bad parents, childhood trauma, or something else entirely?

This will be based on both the most upto date high quality research, as well as my training and work as a psychologist who works with many ADHD clients.
