Brendan is three years old. His parents are concerned, because he is always running and jumping on things. Even when watching his favorite movie on television, he fidgets, bounces, and wiggles around. You should advise Brendan’s parents to:

Be Patient

Explanation: he is a growing boy and is trying to figure out what he wants to do as he grows and matures he will calm down.

Brendan's parents should be patient and proud that he is developing normally for a child his age.

Explanation:

The natural assumption when seeing hyperactivity for many is to be concerned about ADHD, the issue with this assumption is that it is typical of young children to be less inhibited than older children, teens, and adults because they are still developing. Around the age of three is when children begin to develop their motor (movement) skills. During this period of time they will be able to run, jump, and play much easier so it is only natural they will begin to move much more than they did the year prior.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. I hope this helped.
