Markus, I would not ever question your efficacy, nor am I a Doctor, but there is so much more: Diet, fitness, parental involvement, state of the family and on and on.
Are there legitimate ADHD cases that need meds? Of course.
Are there absolute shaman and parents willing to attach ADHD as a label to make money or cover their own poor behavior? Of course.
I council multiple opinions, an examination of diet, fitness, social skills, family dynamic, etc. before the first pill heads down the gullet.
Neither of my children were ADHD, BTW, nor was I.
