Well, there are solutions, but it takes more work than writing prescriptions and handing out pills. Works better too though, when done right. In the classroom, positive behavior supports can be used (you will find lots of good stuff if you google "positive behavior supports." There is a lot that families can do to, like spending time with kids and really getting to know them and find out what is important to them. Kids need individual attention. Most of the good solutions (or all of them) have to do with changing the environment and giving kids relationships that help them to cope and to grow. It's not a quick fix, but it can be done if we would all do our part.
