the claim

Drinking alcohol during pregnancy causes ADHD in the child.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
2 sources for · 2 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that drinking alcohol during pregnancy causes ADHD in the child?

Partly. Evidence on whether prenatal alcohol causes ADHD is mixed and only partial: one small longitudinal study reports roughly fivefold increased odds of child ADHD with binge or regular drinking in pregnancy, and a reference book says such exposures may raise ADHD risk, while a twin study found the association largely indirect and genetic and another small cohort found attention deficits but no hyperactivity.
