Perna, I'm wondering if you think ADHD is a learning disability? It actually isn't, although up to 30% of people with ADHD also have a learning disability.

ADHD is not considered to be a learning disability. It can be determined to be a disability under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), making a student eligible to receive special education services. However, ADHD falls under the category “Other Health Impaired” and not under “Specific Learning Disabilities.”
