Because the treatment today is to warehouse the ADHD kids as zombies
hopped up on drugs as strong as cocaine. This is in no way
'normalizing' them, it is simply a matter of storage and exploitation,
since if you classify more of your student body as 'special education'
kids (as ADHD kids are) you get more state and federal funding. It is a
real life version of "Coma".
Since most elementary school teachers are women, it is to be expected
that their idea of 'normal behavior' is essentially female. It is
selection bias at its core.
I'm not speaking from ignorance, either. I spent more afternoons of 5th
grade in detention than not and was a candidate for special ed until
they gave me an IQ test. Then there was a fight over promoting me ahead
a grade (most likely just to get me out of their hair) versus keeping
me in the grade for 'socialization' purposes (i.e. to extend the
torture). Thank ghu drugs like Ritalin were not in use at that time.
It is my opinion that ADHD is the result of boredom in kids who should
be in an accelerated learning/self study programs that teachers are too
democratic/liberal to approve of and administrators are unable to
finance with state or federal support.
Studies that show that elementary school boys are more aggressive at
learning corroborate my opinion on this.
