I don't think jasonjei was being dismissive of real ADHD. He was just pointing out that it is often over and mis-diagnosed. Many kids are considered misbehaving or diagnosed with a medical problem because they can't sit still for hours at a time, but that really is just kids being kids.

I think jasonjei and you are on the same side of this issue. He was a normal kid that didn't want to be mis-labeled, and you have a real condition that deserves consideration. You should both be opposed to the lazy parents/teachers/doctors who extend ADHD diagnoses far beyond its real scope to medicate normal kids into compliance.
