In Part II of the “Education” of an ADHDer blogchat (part of the He Said / She Said series) I finally get to speak my mind about our education system. I believe it operates on the GIGO principle: Garbage In/Garbage Out. In that chat I said that:
…we have no clue how to educate people. That’s [...]

You Didn’t Fail (For A Dear Friend)

Based on the popularity of the blog — JeffsADDMind — and the willingness of its author, known only as “Jeff,” to discuss most any issue that touches on Adult ADHD (and even issues that don’t touch on Adult ADHD), one would be surprised to learn that there is another side of Jeff that is not [...]

Note: This post, written by Bryan Hutchinson, is in response to the two-part post (links are here and here) from Paradigm of Thought (POT).
To: Paradigm Of Thought, Jeff,
