    Probably is used a little excessively alright, especially if you see a kid glugging a can of coke, then eating some junk and then catapult into hyperactivity, kind of like a home boy on angel dust

    Sugar has no effect on hyperactivity, y'know. The caffeine does. But kids just go mental because they're mental.

    When i was at school there was no such thing as a d h d you were just bold i think alot of people say that there child has adhd as an excuse for been a brat l no there at some genuine cases but come on it seems very second kid has it .

    There was. It probably went undiagnosed in the kids that had it in your class. Dunno how long since you were at school, but methods of diagnosing ADHD have improved in recent years. (More slowly in Ireland than elsewhere).

    Using ADHD as an excuse for being a brat doesn't wash. There is a big difference between a child acting the maggot and a child that has genuine symptoms of ADHD.

    The figures are closer to 1 in 11 than 'every second kid' with a much higher incidence in boys than girls.

    My son has adhd.
    I sometimes wish I could handcuff him somewhere.
    I'd just like to be able to do something small, like making tea, or filling the dishwasher, without him destroying the place.

    Fair play to the cop, as we all know 5 year old are the real menace to society

    LOL, I remember those days, my son had it when he was a kid. Couldnt turn your back for a second. Poked holes in plasterwork, to see how the wall worked... pulled up floorboards to see what was under them, chewed a lightbulb from a small torch, to see what it would feel like..
    Not too mention taking apart any electrical appliance in the house :p:p

    Rumour has it he has a list the length of his arm.

    Spent 3 hours in the corner after pulling his sisters hair last year. Got 2 hours on the naughty step for not eating his veg the night before.

    The scumbag had it coming to him. The world's a safer place with him locked up I tells ya.
