One in seven American boys is being medicated for ADHD. More than that are diagnosed. This school policy here is part of the reason for that apparent epidemic.https://twitter.com/AHelleneAuthor/status/1095709101131292672 …

My son's 1st grade teacher ambushed me with 2 other teachers at a conference and told me to get him tested for ADHD. My doctor said if he was on target socially and academically, he didn't need drugs. Classroom management was the teacher's responsibility.

We did not medicate him. Instead I walked him to and from school for the next 3.5 years so he would be a little less hyper and more able to focus.
