THAT IS what is happening, certainly in the USA, but I think over here as well.

ADD and ADHD simply do not exist – they are invented “diseases” which came into existence by shows of hands as psychiatric conventions.

And “chemical imbalances in the brain” cannot be said to exist if none of the promotors of such can show what the normal brain chemistry consists of, and what these so-called imbalances are.

The whole area is nothing more than a big phama conspiracy to appropriate taxpayer monies.

Very true. But this “epidemic” never arose before. And it isn’t something in the Irn Bru. Little lads used to get loads of opportunities to expend their pent-up energies. Soccer, Rugby, hitting eachother, exploring the junkyard, playing knocky-door-ginger, making go-karts out of old prams, and digging up the street looking for buried treasure. How many of our children nowadays don’t even know their way around their home towns? They are never allowed to have adventures, invent things, build things. Why don’t we go all the way and just keep them all in thermostatically controlled cages? No blimmin wonder they aren’t thriving.

Elsewhere in the world, fidgety, arsey little sods are given a good belting and told to “sit down and shut up”.

Guess what – it has come back to bite the government. Not that the mainstream media have picked up on it, mind.
