[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get sick and tired of people blaming their child's inattentive adhd or add on things like getting up for school. What did our parents do or their parents' parents? add and adhd have been around for a long time, it just now has a 'name'.

To the OP, you have probably babied your child for way too long, so this is going to be hard to get her to be more responsible for herself. Getting up on time and getting to school on time is her job. Let her be late to school a few times and let her grades suffer. Better she learn this in 8th grade than 10th.

Because ADHD is real, and it ruins lives and relationships. Back in the day, people with severe ADHD were "retarded" and bullied and teased and many ended up homeless and destitute, or at the mercy of their relatives. Which is something that is still going on now, since studies have shown people with ADHD tend to have more risk of substance abuse and issues with poverty and crime.

You should be ashamed of yourself, PP.[/quote]
