Of course, many kids ARE helped by medication, so it gets very complicated knowing when it's pressure-to-facilitate positive change and pressure-to-facilitate negative change.
Yup, medication can be good. The problem is side effects and additional meds to manage those... and on and on it goes, and then... voila: a messed up kid. I think a better approach would be to PROPERLY FUND ADHD (I have no issues with this ;p ) so that meds can be a last resort and instead these kids could try dedicated TA time first.
