This kind of ridiculing ADHD is down right dangerous. Children with untreated ADHD, even at a very young age, are at riks to suffer depression, bipolar disorder and bad social skills later on. ADHD is a very tough condition to understand. The repercussions of deciding not to treat a child are severe and unequivocal. A child with untreated ADHD will be much less happy, much less social, much less successful (in every sense of the term) and less healthy than need be. Which is sort of the point of treating it.
