1 in 10 US kids has ADHD, study finds

This new study finds 1 in 10 kids could be diagnosed ADHD. Don't jump to any conclusions until you read the entire study. The most interesting part of the MSNBC article are viewer comments, which show enormous ignorance, some real poor conspiracy thinking, and a distrust of everything medical. Oh, and most of these people blame the parents ...it's a sad situation. For yourself, read the entire study. And remember, every kid with ADHD doesn't need medication, but they do need some understanding and help. It can be as simple as that.
