I have never heard of childhood dementia and a quick Google search seems to point only on this website and other sites with exact same wording.
The numbers they give seem impressively high for a disorder that is barely documented on the internet.
The symptoms are basically normal children behavior.
This looks like a scam design to scare parents into buying something.
It might look like this by accident but I would do a lot more research if I were to donate or take their advice.
Yeah, I did some research and it's really weird. The majority of sites that talk about it are Australian and it's barely, if at all acknowledged anywhere else in the world. I found some sites that seems legit:

I think that maybe it wasn't recognized before due to how rare and weird it is, like ptsd was, but I can't say for sure if it's not a scam.
