>Dr. Max Wiznitzer, a professor of pediatric neurology at Case Western Reserve University, says he suspects some parents may be reluctant to put their kids on ADHD medication out of misguided concerns.

The concern is the medication itself is addictive - not necessarily of some increased risk of unrelated drug abuse.
