Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is NOT a genuine brain chemistry disorder that must be treated with drugs to help children. This so-called disease is entirely fictitious and has no measurable physiological basis whatsoever. Hyperactivity in children is actually caused primarily by poor nutritional habits (consumption of refined sugars and food coloring) and can be easily corrected in less than two weeks by taking children off all refined carbohydrates and food additives. The ADHD "disease" was invented to sell drugs and boost the power of the highly corrupt psychiatric community, which increasingly "discovers" fictitious diseases and treats them with mind-altering narcotics. To learn more, visit the Citizens Commission on Human Rights.

ADHD is often misdiagnosed and is simply an excuse for poor parenting.
That is not to say that ADHD does not exist. It's just that it's easier to drug our children up rather than give them a good upbringing.
In this society no one takes responsibility. Everyone is to blame except the parents.
Science seems to vindicate parents when really our knowledge is incomplete and picking and choosing which scientific "discovery" excuses our lack of responsibility is no way to go.
I don't recall hundreds of psycho kids running around 20, 30 years ago.

If you did, and you have said that you didn't believe he had ADHD, and you allowed your son to take it on the word of a teacher then I would say that that was a poor parenting decision.
