I was going around spreading the story that 50% of Gifted Children had ADHD. Dr. J corrected me. It was an observation made by a doctor that 50% of Gifted Children displayed the symptoms of ADHD. But there could be many reasons for the restlessness, such as boredom, etc..

That said, I personally and everyone who has ADHD, is a freakin’ GENIUS!

As yet I don’t have the hard statistics or evidence to prove that.

So in the meantime I’m relying on religious faith that this is true until it can be proven. ;-)
