"ADHD is a disability now?"

It always was a fake disease.

Male initiative is the Left's biggest target. (Ever see Clockwork Orange?)

Has been for years.

Many many ADHD kids receive SSI benefits of $579.00 per month (you tax dollars) for having ADHD or some other "learning disability."

It is, if one of you kids has it.

It's a nightmare to deal with at times for both parent, child and teacher.

If you embarrass easily in public, don't have ADHD children.

I have a lot of empathy for anyone who has a child with ADHD.

Here is a web site that might give you a better understanding of what ADHD parents have to deal with everyday: http://www.understandingadhd.com/webcast_transcript.asp?b=understandingadhd&f=adhd_comprehend&c=helpadhd&pg=2

or

We have real problems with mental health.

The Democrats prove everyday that mental problems not dealt with can be detrimental to the population and our country.

There is a good deal of money in ADD and ADHD being a "disability".

Actually in this fast paced abstract random world ADHD is a survival skill of the highest order.
