Hello,
It sounds as though the child has a number of possible contributing factors in his inattention (you don't mention age - sometimes it is just immaturity or boredom!). The best way to find out for sure is to have him evaluated by a paediatrician or child psychologist specialized in developmental issues. All the best to you and your great great grandson - he is lucky to have a family member so caring!
