My son was told he had ADHD. I let his mother put him on Ritalin and was the proud father of a zombie. After 6 months I told her the experiment was off. I took him off, and treated him like any young boy, made sure we were active in his life at and away from school. No diet, no weird vitamins, just love. He is now a 21 year old and an EMT studying to be a paramedic.
I would have been diagnosed with ADHD as a boy as well. Instead I managed to graduate summa cum laude, have a great military career and graduated from college with honors. To me, ADHD is nothing more than part of making little boys be something they are not.
This beyond my son being a rambunctious boy, and regardless of his diagnosis I will not put him on drugs. That is why I’m interested in those who’ve tried diets and supplementation.
By the way, ADHD has nothing to do with intelligence level.
Remember when it wasn't a disease, but when boys were called 'day-dreamers' ?
When the source of the problem was that those boys were mentally very active, and were being bored to death in the classroom?
Remember loading up old model planes with firecrackers, setting them on fire, and throwing them across the yard while visualizing a major aerial battle ?
They'd put us in jail if we did that now.
All normal boys are diagnosed as being ADHD when in the public school system. The schools are designed to destroy Virtue and the protective nature of boys-—and make them into dependent zombies.
I was asked to considered my son as ADHD. I laughed. He was reading in kindergarden and the most coordinated boy—and could sit for hours and draw elaborate scenes of army tanks and aircraft and explosions. That was the problem-—he was a very intelligent, normal BOY!
Our government schools want dummies who take orders and don’t question authority.
A profession well-suited for someone with ADHD. Main thing is to find a profession that a person with ADHD finds exciting in order to hold his attention. Being a paramedic is an excellent choice.
