ADD which is short for attention deficit disorder is a disorder common to children and even to adults. Attention deficit disorder symptoms include inattention and a high level of hyperactivity or impulsivity.

Children with this condition usually talk a lot and can't stand engaging in quiet activities that require more brain function than muscle.
Symptoms of impulsivity include difficulty of waiting among other things. They often interrupt conversations and games which can be distracting to most people. They can't wait for a question to be finished before blurting out their answer.
