Good. I wasn't home-schooled, but I graduated in 1963 (before "diversification") when teachers will still teachers and schools maintained the discipline to create an atmosphere for learning.

Back then I never heard of anyone having "ADD"...those that were thought to have it were sent to the principals office, and when they returned (or IF they returned) they were completely cured, with no drugs. Amazing.

Usually when the parents found out you had been "cured" by the Principal, they would give you a "booster shot" to make damn sure it didn't happen again.

No one ever heard of a "teachers union" back then...unless you count them "sticking together" about discipline cases a "union".

Not only does ADD medication make the teachers job easier, it also dulls the conscious, thinking mind. That allows "suggestion" to pass into the subconscious mind without a problem.
Scary thoughts 101 - All the school shooters were on ADD medication. We almost lost our gun rights over that.
