Why are so many kids being diagnosed as ADHD?

Question

i know that all those kids cant really have it.

Answer 1

maybe they do maybe they don't......

who cares? do you know any kid that has been diagnosed?

i do.......... she totally fine...........and normal.

nowadays people r getting diagnosed for everything and everything has a name. ;)

what is adhd? attention deficient hyperactive disorder?

geez all that means is the kid has lots of energy.... and doesn't pay attention to everything that is told to them....... um id say that's pretty normal.........

Answer 2

instead of using discipline in parenting, the lazy parents of today just throw their kids some pills to try and correct unwanted behavior. it's a cop out. sadly, we are a society that wants instant gratification as opposed to actually trying to correct problems that may take their precious "time and energy". i think it's c**p, but what the h**l do i know.
