Interesting story, thanks for the ping! :-)
The creepiness of Scientology aside, I agree with others here who are alarmed at the notion of a public school, as policy, requiring a child to be medicated for psychological purposes. Much of the current fashion of medicating children stems from the militant-feminist / leftist academicians' desire to 'feminize' young males, and muting or eliminating more aggressive male behaviors entirely has become an integral part of the Left's jihad against normalcy. Feminized males typically don't vote Republican when they grow up. This is discussed at length in Christina Hoff Sommers' landmark book

Excellent book.
I believe also that as families became smaller, there were a lot more women who had no experience of boys growing up, as they did not have brothers, and did not know what was normal for boys.
Hence, the stigmatizing of normal boy behavior as pathological.
