Anecdotally, I've observed several families (including my own) where one child did not exhibit any ADHD behaviors through adulthood and another that did, separated by only one year and raised together. It's certainly possible there could have been some category of unnoticed traumatic events, but I think a genetic predisposition is more likely, no?
That said, I was likely jumping to conclusions on causality when the science is still out. CPTSD and ADHD may turn out to be the same thing, or may not. They just happen to "look the same" in brain scans.
