Peer rejection refers to the experience of being excluded or rejected by peers. Children with ADHD, owing to their behaviors coming from impulsivity, hyperactivity, or difficulty in following social cues, may face challenges in social interactions, leading to peer rejection. This can have a significant impact on their self-esteem, social skills development, and overall mental health. Addressing peer rejection often involves social skills training and interventions in school and therapy settings.
