Children are different to each other why must they be labeled because of it why cant we just accept those differences instead of putting labels like ADHD on them.

I want you to provide some evidence that kids being diagnosed with ADHD are simply bold kids. You’ve made a claim, now back it up.

Thomas Edison is suspected of having it as well. Like autism, it can be a massive challenge but depending on the person, it can be highly beneficial in terms of achievement.

Oh and that Thomas Edison guy if you've heard of him. James Carville while not an inventor led political campaigns for Clinton and Blair... Not necessarily, massive reserves of energy can be incredibly useful if you have somewhere to direct it towards. Plus for an artist or scientist for that matter, it results in a very different perspective on world.

Wow, that's impressive how you can diagnose those 4 kids based off what their mother has said on the radio.

A large proportion of those with adhd develop it as a result of genetics, they've identified genes etc that are associated with it. So more than one child having it isn't unusual. Similar applies with autism.
