Ok, this post might get moved but im putting it here for now. Anyway:
At my school I can name around six people right away that say they have ADD...yet I have been in classes with them and they have absolutely no signs. They pay attention, they get good grades, and yet, when they forget to do homework they complain and bitch to their friends and myself that "the teacher should understand they have ADD."
Secondly...what kind of bullshit is that? I'll ask them: "Are you taking meds for it?" (long pause) "No."
...."Why not if u can't get ur work done?"
"Oh its just a mild case of ADD that I have, it doesn't require meds."
WTF dude? how can you have a "mild case" of ADD thats limited to not being able to do homework? And to top it off all of their friends are in the misinformation circle and believe that they have ADD. Ill ask someone why (andrew) didn't call me while they were hanging out. "I told you to call him. Oh dude you don't know? He has ADD."
...seriously...what the fuck.
