No amount of double talk can mask the fact that MILLIONS of children are being drugged for the purpose of behavioral control.

If this was a real medical problem on this scale, it would have manifested itself as tragedies everywhere throughout human history.

While I believe that 90%+ of ADD diagnoses may be incorrect, looking to history to disprove its reality doesn't hold water. There is a great deal of evidence to suggest a connection between our modern, information-based society, and problematic effects of ADD. In other words, it has probably always existed, but caused little trouble in societies where most people earned their livings via manual labor, and few were expected to spend much time at "book-learning".

Just 150-200 years ago in this country, most boys attended school only sporadically (often only for a couple of months in the dead of winter), and rarely beyond the age of 14-15. They were needed to perform manual labor on the family farm, or to take manual labor jobs in industry to help support their families and themselves.
