to think that ADHD/ADD is a load of nonsense?

Are we really producing ever more kids with these conditions or do parents simply need to take back control and realise that, at times, all kids can be obnoxious, loud, defiant, restless and fidgety and that strictly enforced rules for behaviour, lots of TLC, and the occasional smack on the bum may be the way forward?

Claw3: With regard to the various references and links I have given you will just have to go back and read more carefully!

Incidentally I have never said that psychologists can't be relied upon. I actually wrote:

"It should also be remembered that neither psychology nor psychiatry are exact sciences in the way as are the so called "hard" sciences of physics, chemistry and biology which, apart from some of the more esoteric aspects of theoretical physics, rest on physical evidence."

I did suggest that ADHD may only exist in the minds of "various" psychologists but that does not include ALL psychologists.

You also need to remember that individuals working in any academic community or discipline are not constantly and permanently in complete agreement with each other.
