I didn't read the whole thread, my apologies. But visual spatial thinking kids are totally characteristic of ADHD. Just the nature of their thinking. And the mess that goes with it.

I would do a project and a tornado around me. When the project was done, then I could cope with clean up and organization. I could not cope with the mess in mid project. No way, no how -- as an adult, being paid for what I did. A child is just starting to deal with those issues.
