[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ADHD is a genetic disorder where there is a structural abnormality in the brain. There seems to be a genetic component to it. It’s hard to believe there are so many kids who have brains that are not developing normally. It can’t be easy to have this disorder. [/quote] Just because it has a name now, doesn't mean it didn't always exist. I have an a few uncles (different sides of my family), now that I have a son with ADHD, clearly had/have it. They struggled through school, didn't finish college, and found their niche. It's like this graph with left-handedness. The dips & increases are not due to more people being born left-handed. It's when people were allowed to be recognized as left-handed, without stigma. https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1100/format:webp/1*yUIVmzSuoKi9EmgdB811uQ.png[/quote]
