Shaun Ryder admits his kids would have been 'taken off him years ago' if it wasn't for his wife as he details their battle with ADHD and opens up about his own struggle with the condition


Shaun Ryder has admitted his children would have been 'taken off him years ago' if it wasn't for his wife as he details their struggles with ADHD.

Shaun himself was diagnosed with the condition in his late 50s, with the singer noting that his ADHD explained all the 'f**king madness' when he was younger seeing as it affects behaviour and can lead to impulsive actions like drug use - which he has openly admitted to using. while the star is certainly proud of his family, he's the first to admit that his wife Joanna, whom he married in 2010, should take credit for their care as he dismissed his own abilities when asked what advice he would give about parenthood [pictured with Joanne in 2011] Easily distracted Inattentive Forgetful Trouble listening Disorganised Talkative Difficult sleeping Day dreaming Hyperactive Poor time management Low frustration tolerance
