Back about 5 years ago our pediatrician and MD, Dr. Silverstein, said my daughter had “a touch of ADD/ADHD.”

This was based upon him looking into her ears and nose, a “concerned” diagnosis from a school administrator and him asking her if she “liked school.”

That was the last time we ever saw that quack and my daughter is now in college, never having taken Ritalin etc.

Friends of mine got called in about their daughter. The parents told them no way she was going on drugs. She graduated from Medical School and is a Doctor today.

Lucky you. In some parts of this sick nation, teachers and school administrators have managed to get parents charged with "medical neglect" for refusing to medicate their children for this nonsensical "diagnosis".
