The thing is that everywhere on Hackernews and society in general ADHD is brought up as the cause to a lot of peoples issues while the issues usually are just normal human behavior such as problems concentrating and sitting still for more than 15 minutes.
"Implying ADHD is an excuse is a deeply concerning statement."
This is exactly what I mean. OP says that we should check if we have ADHDH because we have difficulties starring at a progress bar for a minute and instead want to read the news or other activity. That is not ADHD.
Can I ask, was school too easy or hard, boring or interesting?
Interesting that it disappeared :-)
I wonder how many kids would not be considered having ADD if they got more say in how their school day looked. Maybe sports before sitting still and reading?
