Many Children Dx w/ADHD May Just Need More Z's

December 19, 2003

I really believe this ADHD is some made up disease. Children may have a

learning disability or just learn differently, but ADHD shouldn't be

portrayed like the teachers/doctors make it out to be. It is just so sad

what they try to make you believe when it comes to ADHD. I just read a

story about a new homeschool mom whose daughter was put on meds for 3 yrs

basically to appease the school. Turned out she was borderline mentally

impaired and not ADHD.

Also, sleeping maybe one issue, but I bet diet is a large part of the

problem too. I just wish people were more informed by the right people....
