It is not just a boy/girl thing. Public schools want to dumb everyone
down to the level of the insipid assholes who run the public school
system. If some kid does start to show creativity or finds themselves
bored with this dull gray regimen they immediately get labelled ADD
and get drugged into submission.
That's absurd, and you should know it.
Not absurd at all. My daughter went through a very emotional, decision
making process last year with her oldest son who is 6 years old. Four
school officials (two teachers and two administrators) were fighting among
themselves about if drug treatment would help his "daydreaming" nature. One
of the teachers who was the most vocal advocate of the treatment finally
admitted that she had self-diagnosed herself with adult ADD and was on
medication. She even started to recommend what type of medication he should
have.
My daughter finally sought advice from her family doctor who told the school
teachers and officials to leave the kid alone .... he's a perfectly normal 6
year old.
The teacher in question got very demanding, bordering on threats to go to
social services to support her recommendation.
