Hyperactive Children - your opinions

Children who really seem to be hyperactive - should they be evaluated and if it is judged that they really are hyperactive, should they be given medication and/or therapy? Or should they just be left alone with the hopes that they will just grow out of it? Is it better for the child to have treament or not?

I just wondered what your thoughts were.

I do not have children myself but have a family member who has a child and feel certain that she is hyperactive. She is a beautiful child but she is very trying to be around for very long and when I looked this up, she certainly seems to have all the symptoms. Others have commented on this, as well.

Thanks for your thoughts and opinions.
