Hannity takes himself too seriously, and is not a good debater.

I only have one child, a 4 year old boy who is an angel and can clean up his room for 20 minutes without losing focus. So my anecdotal experience biases me. When he won't pay attention, I just make sure his choice produces a miserable universe for him and rely on his innate intelligence and self-interest to take hold.

It is hard for me not to notice that all the children in my church who are diagnosed with ADD also have parents I consider shockingly lazy in their parenting.

I can't make an argument for the whole world based on my amateur and anecdotal experience, but it is hard for me not to notice the pattern.

Not everything any one person says is always accurate.

Hannity mentioned that there cannot be ADD because an ADD kid can play video games and not lose concentration.

That argument was absurd. Video games have such a high level of sensory output that it satisfies the ADD's need for a high level of sensory input.

No one called into his show to point out the absurdity of his argument. Well, one woman mentioned it very lightly but didn't hammer the point home and was quickly distracted onto a related topic.
