ADHD and Dyslexia: Why Do They So Often Co-Occur?

What's the connection between ADHD and dyslexia? Why are so many kids diagnosed with both? We’re still learning a lot about these learning and thinking differences and the reasons why they may so often co-occur.

That research could lead to better ADHD treatment and dyslexia treatment in the future.
