    Michel D   It can't be both

    So I was just reading some person's blog about "The adventures of parenting a child with ADD/ADHD"

    ... hey, here's a fucking idea... save yourself some time and only type out one acronym. Your kid is only one or the other. They're not both. I might have been okay if it had said "parenting children with ADD/ADHD," but seeing as how you're parenting a singular child, then they aren't ADD/ADHD.
    ADD - Attention Deficit Disorder

    ADHD - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
    See, the key word here is "Hyperactivity."

    If your child isn't Hyperactive, then they're ADD, if they are Hyperactive then they're ADHD. If they're only Hyperactive part of the time, well guess the fuck what, they're still ADHD. If they're ADD and they start getting Hyperactive, well, they're not ADD anymore! They've completely redefined their classification.

    Fuckwit.
