No I don’t believe there is a connection between ADD and a high pitched voice. I have a friend who is a singer, has ADD bigtime, and has a beautiful speaking voice. The only problem is he is impatient, talks fast, and changes topics practically in mid sentence. I have ADD and this drives me extra nuts, I don’t sing, but I was a radio DJ at one time. There are also things you can do to improve anybody’s speaking voice. It seems that most young women in the United States have affected some version of the ridiculous Valley Girl accent. It’s not even a real regional or ethnic accent, it was made up by some kids in L.A. along with the extra dumb Surfer Dude accent for boys. The Valley Girl accent makes people sound immature and they have to really work hard to get rid of it. Better not to have it in the first place. Parents stop your kids from speaking like that. Better off sounding like a Canadian eh.
