[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 540184, member: 11791"] The split between "classic" and "inattentive" is well documented. More boys are "classic" and more girls are "inattentive", but it can go either way. The rest? To me, it's just somebody drawing lines in the sand again. There is SO much overlap - read those descriptions. And then consider that the majority of people with ADD/ADHD have that plus a list of other things... Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), Auditory Processing Disorders (APD), LDs, all are frequently co-morbid. Add in the mood disorders that come when life works against you for too long, and it complicates things even more. And that's before you look at MI. On top of that... the symptoms of ADD/ADHD are by definition also found in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids, and many of those get ADHD as a first diagnosis. I think the approach is a bit simplistic. [/QUOTE]
