Is ADHD an epidemic? I don’t believe so. But drug use has more than doubled in five years in Finland. Worrying! Pasi Sahlberg, author of Finnish Lessons

It’s clear to me that ADHD is over-diagnosed and over-medicated in the United States. We are using drugs to make the students conform to an obsolete classroom environment rather than changing the environments to meet the needs of the students. Too many teachers want kids medicated so they can sit still and focus on boring stuff. Thanks to Melissa Hathaway we have a super guest post on the matter. If you are looking for a no nonsense take on the problem, you won’t be disappointed.
