I to believe that educators or those who study children behaviors are rather quick to paste ADHD onto children. I remember as a child I was very bored in the classroom..my mind would wonder and imagine all over the place while the teacher would be instructing; along with other things (passing notes, trying to find an excuse to walk the halls, etc). Don't get me wrong I was just bored with school but was never a bad/disrespectful child. I was reprimanded by my parents for not paying attention instead of being bad. But anyway I'm saying that to say if that was now I would be labeled as a "ADHD" type kid. But in actuality I wasn't.............................. I just needed to get my little butt somewhere and stay still. I tell you once my parents spanked me
I would be still in class and tough that boredom out!!!
CrimsonTide I understand what you're going through with the classroom
my father was a teacher and I tell you those kids would have him cussing under his breath.
