We as a society need to take responsibility for those children who are afflicted so they cannot thrive without our support. They can thrive. let’s help them do so!

I would be happy to reblog it but it goes to Facebook and I boycott Facebook.

Perhaps you could just copy the information from it if that fits better with your principles and you have time. Many thanks John

Speaking as someone who bears the weight of ADHD, It’s not so much that society needs to support us, but they need to understand us. Many of us have had to grow into an adult mindset from an early age to cope with the pressures that come with being “that kid”.
In doing so, we grow stronger. Though some may use it as a crutch, I believe that ADHD, while requiring us to sacrifice small portions of childhood, has made me a philosophically “Better person” than many of those in my generation. Not that that’s saying much. Having ADHD has allowed me to grow, as a person through both overcoming my trials through others and trials through myself. IN all honesty, I don’t think we even need to have the same month as the autistic kids. Hell, I don’t even think we need a month at all.

As an ADHD parent of an ADHD child, I think technology has made life easier for ADHD children, I struggled as a child getting my thoughts onto paper, my brain just went to fast. Nowadays it is so much easier to just type. My daughter is thriving in a world that struggles to understand how a 13 year old can have such an old head on young shoulders. I can have in depth conversations with her, and Google is a godsend. These children are special and many highly intelligent. The sooner society realises just what an asset they can be, regardless of their quirks, the better. I can see an ADHD Prime Minister in the not too distant future.
