What I find incredible is that anyone would even swallow the concept. We've all read the symptoms, right? Jesus H. Christ. What a load of horseshit. By the criteria, ANY child (and many adults) (most adults?) could be diagnosed with this pharmaceutical money generating "diagnosis".
I wouldn't take the word of someone who believes in the religion of Ron Hubbard. Calling Tom Cruise, skategreen is calling your number. I too believe many things are overdiagnosed and treated. I also know that some things are medically related. It's not about bad parenting.
We didn't know about Irritable Bowl Sydndrom in the 70's, but many people are living better lives with medication to control the symtoms.
But I supposed you believe Vitamins will cure those people also?
I'll take the knowledge of a doctor who has gone to school over 12 years then a follower of a religion that doesn't acknowledge we might not know everything about the mind.
