Well there seems to have been a huge outcry about this, claiming it's irresponsible, dangerous, should be banned, a disgrace etc. I saw nothing in it that, it was a view based on research with professionals that questioned the narrative giving an alternative view to what is a very expensive and disagnosed condition which is rising hugely.

Make your own mind about it but the things that stood out for me was; he believes its a behaviour and environmental condition not a medical one. 

how easy it is to get a diagnosis, based on things like being talkative and easily distracted, fidgeting, not being able to queue etc. the most diagnosed group are 10-14 years old boys. Also the age where testostirone starts to surge.....

The dangers of giving children a pill at their age telling them have a condition which they cant do anything about and have a pill, they will never learn the coping strategies, patience, concentration etc 

Certainly worth a watch
