ADD Again (20/20 report)

For those who receive American TV shows:

I'm off work today and just saw an announcement for tonight's 20/20.

The topic mentioned was:
Ritalin. The drug used to treat children with ADD is now being used by
those who do not have ADD. Are teachers pressuring parents to put their
children on this drug...

I'm sure I didn't get the wording _exactly_ right, but that's the essence of
what was said.

I thought many on this list might find this report of interest.

For our censor in Mexico: Yes, this does have a connection with Scouting
since it was recently a hot topic here on how to deal with Scouts with
AD/HD.
