Considering that America became inhabited by a bunch of risk takers, I think it’s pretty widespread in our gene pool, and we would be foolish to think of ADHD only according to the negatives, and not the positives. The positives greatly outweigh the negatives. IMHO.
,,, agreed. I'm OK with hearing nine stories in three minutes :)
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t the farmers being sent to America in the 1700 & 1800s, lol. The gene pool in this country is full of hunters/gatherers & explorers so it’s no wonder so many Americans have ADHD. My 3 kids, hubby & myself as well as 2 out of 3 grandchildren were all diagnosed which isn’t surprising because it’s 70% genetic.
