I firmly believe the acronym is incorrect. It is not a deficit; it is an advantage in some ways. I'm a software dev.. Been so for > 30 years, and I can tell you that ADD is a super power. ADD is not so much that you cannot pay attention. It's that you pay deep attention to the "wrong" things. I bet if you sit your nephew in front of a video game they disappear into it. This getting into the zone like flipping a switch is an amazing skill to have when programming. It's a nirvana like state, programmers dream of. Your nephew will sit in class and not hear a word his teacher says, because a bird outside has him in the zone. Get this kid into a coding boot camp.
