ADHD
Or badly disciplined child syndrome. I hate when parents use this made up non-sickness to justify their kids bad behavior. Man the fuck up and tell your kids "No!" once in a while and stop pandering to them, they will be a lot better adjusted to the real world when they grow up.

And

People who cannot drive properly. Yes, you can signal if you are turning off so I can anticipate where to point so as not to smash your fucking BMW/Audi to bits.*

* Ok, not everyone who drives one is a cunt, but every cunt on the road seems to drive one.

There waqs a very large study in the US.
They took out all the artificial food colourings for a year from school food and saw the incidence of ADHD behaviour drop stunningly.
Over here in Australia, it's f***ing hard work to find stuff without artificial colourings in, but worth it.

As part of this study, did they give two groups of children food with artificial food colouring,
but only tell the parents of one group that the food had artificial colouring in it? That would have helped determine whether the correlation was in any way psychological.

Friends of ours are very good parents
They do not pander to their kids, they set good boundaries and stick to them.

One of their boys is fine and a pleasure to be around. The other has diagnosed and statemented ADHD and is a fucking nightmare. It is not bad parenting (in this case), it's a developmental disorder.

look at the growing number of psychologists
And their ilk who now oppose ADHD. I refuse to believe in it at all. Just beat the brats.

There's a difference between ADD and ADHD
ADHD is a 'real' disorder, where your brain doesn't produce enough *insert science*, and treated with what is effectively speed.

ADD is over-diagnosed in the US, and could potentially just be described as laziness.

I was told by a biology teacher that it is now believed* to be a neurological disorder. I have no idea whether or not this has ever been confirmed to be the case.

*By some scientists.
