[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does any teen NOT have ADHD?! Good lord.[/quote] FCPS teacher here. I hate to say it, but many parents do seek out the ADHD label to give their teen boys to give them an edge (and an excuse). "Oh, he's very bright, but he has ADHD." In reality, ma'am, your son is perfectly average or slightly below average for this area and has stereotypical teen boy behavior. Will he perform better on medication? Of course, the medication curbs impulsivity and increases focus. And extra time on tests will help quite a bit as well! [/quote] You’re an ableist hag. It’s awful that you’re allowed to teach[/quote]
