Could be because the boys get those meds?
I think that is the key sentence in your entire article. The meds, the public discussions as a mental health issue and all the libtard feel good crapola are ways to treat the symptoms without addressing the cause.
Subsidies for single motherhood, deposit your seed and disappear fatherhood, pretending that children can be just as responsibly raised by gays or lesbians are just some of the tools used by libtards to make war on the traditional family.
You can see it in their sneering indictment of the Ozzie and Harriett or Leave It to Beaver caricature. If some obscure species of minnow is dwindling due partly to irrigation in a dry year, their answer is to put millions of acres of prime agricultural land (and thousands of workers) out of production to save the obscure minnow.
But when their policies produce a decline of the traditional family, their policy prescriptions are to hasten this decline because it is so old fashioned and passe'. When fathers get the same respect that an obscure minnow species enjoy, this problem will begin to self-correct.

BINGO. You win the prize!

I think the meds are a part of it, but they treat a symptom that the schools created.
The problem is that school boys and girls are at the age where their bodies begin growing rapidly. Schools used to have a thing called "recess" in the morning and afternoon to let the children go outside to run around and generally expend energy. This would tire them out so they could sit quietly in class and learn their lectures.
Many schools today have driven out recess, along with many other outlets for energy like band, PE, shop, etc., and replaced the time with social behavior modifaction classes on the environment, alternate lifestyles, and multi-culturalism.
With no outlet for their natural energy, boys are labeled as ADD and drugged by the schools until they graduate. While drugged, their emotions are also suppressed. They don't learn to deal with their emotions when they're young, so they are consumed by them when they graduate and are taken off the meds. All it takes is for a girlfriend to dump them, or another boy to court a girlfriend, or a best-friend to die or move away, and they explode from their pent up suppressed feelings.
That's my theory, anyway.
