Ouvindo mãe e filho sobre os desafios da escolarização de um estudante com TDAH no ensino regular

Abstract

The present work of conclusion of course (CBT) presents reflections on the school and family life of a child diagnosed with Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder. The research presentes the following question as a guiding problem: how is the insertion of children with ADHD in regular education being carried out and how does their family accept this disorder? Aiming at answers, our general objective is to understand the family and school life of children with ADHD. To achieve this objective, we have outlined the following specific objectives: to analyze the child's insertion in school; identify whether inclusion policies are being put in place and understand how family life is doing before and after diagnosis. We have the theoretical support of Teixeira (2011), of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM V, 2014), Benczik and Casella (2015) and Stroh (2010), among others. A case study was carried out with a mother and her child diagnosed with ADHD. The mother gave us an interview and the information allowed us to organize the analyzes around three axes: the “shock” at the diagnosis of ADHD, the entrance to the school and the relationship with the teachers and the challenges found at the school. Our study allowed to demonstrate how the child was inserted in the school and to reflect on the difficulties to deal with ADHD.
