[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because it was lost in the shuffle: “For one, ADHD is overdiagnosed. Experts estimate that 5% is a realistic upper limit of children with the disorder, but in many areas of the country, as Watson found in Virginia, up to 33% of white boys are diagnosed with ADHD” https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/is-adhd-overdiagnosed-and-overtreated-2017031611304 [/quote] This is true. Affluent parents want their kids to perform well at all times and they’re not going to wait for a kid to mature. Teachers are also a lot less tolerant of immature kids whether it’s normal or not - blame the teachers unions and their love of large class sizes. If it’s any consolation these wealthy kids are on meds for life and that’s not necessarily a great thing in many ways.[/quote]
