And there is no objective test for ADD, it is the subjective judgement of the psychologist/psychiatrist.

Funny post though.

I originally wanted to agree with both of you but a popup appeared and it's shiny and pretty so I'm not sure what I wanted anymore.

This one was really good for me because first guy that ever beat me up ended up becoming my best friend a few years later. I've also been in fights where we fought and did get up and shake hands and were totally cool after. Now I am amazed when I hear kids getting arrested for this stuff because really it is just part of growing up, especially when one kid starts it and your are just defending yourself. Never understood the entire "expell" or "suspention" and how that really helps at all. Kids I knew use to think of a suspension as a free vacation and if they got expelled a lot ende dup never going back to any school. If I were principal I would make these kids come after school and do work for the school instead....
