I have to wonder if he has ADD and autism confused. If so, I would agree with him. Autism would be hard to confuse with a "bad kid". ADD, OTOH, is just mostly brats getting Ritalin to sell on the playground.

If the commercials are correct on autism, I would be demanding some answers as to why there is so many as opposed to 20 years ago. Either it's over diagnosed or we have something in the water supply. It is, however a real disease and no amount of discipline will phase it.

ADD, OTOH, has been proven t be a scam with moms telling their kids to "act up" so they can get SSI payments.

What proof?

My son has ADD, he has been fully tested and it has been verified.

We are not receiving any SSI for this disability.
