[quote=Anonymous][quote]Even the ADHD diagnosis is a joke......it's an invented condition to make parents feel better about their children's deficiencies.[/quote] ADHD is not an invented condition. My kid has it and is a math whiz - he's accelerated by two grades and one of the top students in his class. But for subjects he doesn't like, it is an incredible struggle to get him to sit still and focus on completing work. Extra time doesn't help, and I don't think he needs it, but breaks to move around help a bit. He also can't cross a street without a traffic light safely, despite being 11 years old, and almost a year and a half of practice, because he has no impulses control. ADHD is real.[/quote]
