Stim Nation: Drug Mongering

There is an excellent article in the Public Library of ScienceMedicine journal about the role teachers play in ADHD treatment.
With ADHD, the teacher’s work extends beyond simply ensuring the disorder is understood by parents. Instead, the teacher participates in the diagnosis, and may broker different forms of treatment, or rejection of treatment. Brokerage is not a disinterested activity: teachers may have a vested interest in detecting and managing disruptive children, or they may adhere to beliefs about learning disorders which lead them to dissuade parents of the need for treatment“.
