Wow. Where do you get your information? My kid has had ADD and other "learning disabilites" for 19 years and it has cost us a lot of our own money and even more time to get him the extra help he needs.
Wish us lazy parents would have known that our boy's problems were only caused by our laziness and the school's greed...and all this time we could have actually gotten on the public dole!
Man, that would have saved us private school costs and private tutor costs; as well as the doctors, tests, special diets, behavior therapy and all that worry we went through to get that boy through school and into college!
Thanks for the dripping sarcasm.
It's wasted on me, however. I never said you were "lazy parents" or that your child's problems were "caused by [your] laziness and the school's greed."
All I said was that ADD and ADHD kids routinely get SSI now.
That is a fact.
If you want to know where I got my information, Freepmail me. I'll tell you all you want to know.
Without trying to be offensive, I am just curious if the docs have ever told you what caused/might have caused these problems?
I wonder if ADD is something people are just now noticing, or whether it is "new" (generationally). If new, what's the cause?
