[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the parent of a student with true and severe ADHD, diagnosed in first grade, this bothers me. People may question his legitimate needs because of so many people taking advantage.[/quote] Right there with you. My kid looks normal and after years of struggles and medication is finally doing well. But according to some commenters I guess multiple expensive evaluations by licensed psychologists for the last 10 years were incorrect? He’s just a lazy drug abuser? [/quote] No one is talking about the kids diagnosed in early elementary. We're talking about the kids diagnosed at 15 after years of academic and social success, just in time to get extra time on the SAT and get a scrip for ADHD meds to help them get through an overloaded schedule junior and senior year so that they can get into a top college.
