I agree 100%. My youngest son was diagnosed with all this crap in the early 70s. He was hyperactive and liked to fight. In the first grade he was forbidden metal lunch pails because they were his favorite weapon. Doctors insisted he be placed on drugs. We denied this treatment. at about age 8 one of his fighting episodes cost him $40.00. He has not had a violent moment since and is now a priest with a chemical engineering degree plus MBA in finance. SF

Congratulations! What a wonderful story with such a happy resolution. I don’t know if your son had contact with any Irish Christian Brothers during his schooling, but it sounds like he was well equipped to defend himself if needs be!
