There are certain children who even at this age are extremely uncontrollable. From the outside, this is mostly ascribed to bad parenting, like "What else could it be?" Well, it turns out, these children often can't be helped by "good parenting" or non-pharmaceutical therapy. They are still destroying their homes, terrorizing their parents and peers. And even though they are the aggressors, they suffer immensely, let alone their parents. Also, even in much milder cases it has been shown that beating or otherwise severely punishing children (emotionally might count, too), actually increases the behavioral problems in the long term. If ADHD medications helps these children to actually choose peacefulness, I'm not entirely against it.
