    1 in 10 US children have been diagnosed with ADHD, and 1 in 20 have ADHD symptoms?

    Did I read that right? Half of kids diagnosed with ADHD in the US have no symptoms?

      Generally it would mean “and another 1 in 20”. So then of the kids who are not diagnosed, 1 in 20 still show symptoms.
