99% of ADHD can be cured with a smack on the arse.

I guess you're jokingly suggesting that would help with the attention deficit portion as well. Does it also work with adults who continue having problems with concentration and task-focus? Thinking about the adult ADHD patients I worked with I'm skeptical. Would it even be legal to assault them in the way you're suggesting? /

Not sure of the 99%, but some definitely will. Here are more comments from Dr. Frances blaming the “epidemic” of ADHD diagnoses on BigPharma.

You obviously don’t know a darn thing about ADHD. It’s not a discipline thing ... it’s more about focus than anything else. You can beat a child to a bloody pulp and it wouldn’t change a thing about that child’s ability to focus.
