[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 595716, member: 1550"] My opinion? Does anyone care...lol. There is just as much ADHD in France as anywhere else, but it isn't diagnosed. WHen I went to school there was just as much as there is now, but it's not diagnosed so the kids didn't get the right help. Back then, schools were also less rushed and hurried so all kids had a better chance, but there were plenty of spastic kids back then. A structured environment can help the ADHD child function better, but ADHD is neurological and can't be stopped by environment. Same with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). I don't believe there is less of it in France. I just think that France is behind in diagnosing it. So that's my .02. [/QUOTE]
