There are many symptoms and environmental factors that conclude the diagnosis of ADHD and other disorders.It is not legitimate for a non-physician or someone not of medical background to asses the theoretical over diagnoses of ADHD. I am a concerned parent awaiting a diagnosis. Specific behaviors have been seen that may not be that of a "normal" child. I think the controversy should be over what treatments are effective. I also think that those treatments should help scientists differentiate disorders. Sort of like a trial and error approach.View Thread
