Discuss the nature of relationships in adolescence
What will be an ideal response?
Despite their many social problems with peers, some adolescents with ADHD may meet their social needs by maintaining one or two positive close friendships (Glass, Flory, & Hankin, 2012). The social premise for such relationships may differ from those of other teens, possibly with a mutual focus on "having fun" rather than on seeking emotional support. Positive friendships may buffer the negative outcomes of peer rejection commonly seen in children with ADHD.
