ADHD is overdiagnosed, but not BS

This is the shining truth on this issue.
Darn NEA teachers can't handle a boy being a boy, and if they can't get him to act like a girl and sit still, they drug him.
Meanwhile, boys with REAL problems can be dismissed as "BS" because of all of the false diagnosis.

The whole concept of behavioral disorder or disease springs from the notion that there is a single behavior pattern that is ideal; using the same logic, all refrigerators ought to be pink.

Thank you. The depth of ignorance on this thread is staggering.
