When my kids were in grade school many of these ‘ADHD’ kids just needed a good swat on the rump and a parent to be a parent.
Exactly, but having a kid diagnosed can also mean more money from the government each month. There are classrooms in urban areas where as many as 3 out of 4 kids are diagnosed with a handicap now. There is supposedly an entire underground network of parents who know which Dr. will do it and how to present the child to get it done.
And with the street value of Ridalin on top of it it’s a double money maker for the baby’s momma.
