GEORGE ELTING was thinking about Barkley's Answer and keyed into
cyberspace:
GE>MP>I recently mentioned that I wrote to Russell Barkley about ADHD
GE>MP>kids receiving both more frequent and harsher discipline than
GE>MP>their non-ADHD peers. With his permission, here is the response:
GE>MP>Dear Mark:
GE>MP>Thank you for writing your rather lengthy email concerning the
GE>MP>nature and quality of discipline meted out to the ADHD child. This
GE>MP>issue has been raised before, but not as clearly as you have.
GE>
GE> >>>>>Major Snip<<<<<
GE>MP>Very truly yours,
GE>MP>Russ
GE>MP>------------------------------------------------------------------
GE>MP>-----
GE>MP>I do not think that I need to comment on this. Dr. Barkley has
GE>MP>said it all.
GE>
GE> Hi Mark, long time since I have seen your posts. I used to frequent
GE>the Alt.support.attn-deficit newsgroup on the internet (until it
GE>filled with flames). I have the same feeling about discipline and
GE>ADHD both from a parent perspective and from a "victim" perspective.
GE>Keep us all informed on this!
GE>
GE> My E-mail address is justgeo1@aol.com.
Hello George. I get regular email from my friends at a.s.a-d sending me
copies of my favorite "doctor's" latest ventures. I dropped AOL because
of the connection problems and changes in my schedule that prohibit me
personally monitoring what my kids do on the web.
I received email from the woman who is going to design the study. From
what she says, it will be extremely difficult to build in controls, etc.
but they will try. Barkley is her mentor for her thesis.
