[quote=Anonymous]Yep, sometimes extra time is not given out fairly. Hopefully schools will always require a medical diagnosis justifying the need for extra time, but it is well-known that some evaluators dish out the ADHD diagnosis like candy, given the right kind of parental "pressure". At the same time, some children will have no visible sign of their learning disorder and cause resentment among some parents while really needing the extra time. Which is a long way of saying, mind your own business. Signed, mother of an ADD kid who badly needs the extra time and even then cannot finish![/quote]
