It's weird that you have such a strongly negative reaction to my post.

Especially this bit:

> > it's not provided as a package of bio-psycho-social treatment.

> ADHD researchers (serious neuroscientists & clinical psychiatrists) have for DECADES tried "biosocial blah blah".

Medication is the Bio bit. "Your children are not wilfully disobedient, please stop hitting them" is the psycho-social bit.

I'm half reacting to a reading of your post that many readers will have, even if it's not one you intended.

On the whole I appreciate you introducing the real prevalence of ADHD, etc.

However the lack of engagement with the reality of treating ADHD and the implied "concerns" is a very easy prelude to a rant about middle class mothers, and the medical establishment.

If I'm a little harsh to you, its only as a stand in for what your post would otherwise be used for: the occasional reader unthinkingly associating it with an attack on effective treatment.
