i totally understand what youre talking about. when i was 7 my parents got divorced. i started getting D's and F's in elementary school. They tried to force ridilin down my throat! Literally! Because I got marks for talking and being disruptive. They never sat down and thought "Maybe she is struggling with her parent's divorce". automatically it was ADD. They even sent someone into my classes to watch me in 4th grade. Then, we moved and in the new school, I got almost straight A's. It was like these teachers got it in their heads that I was messed up and they were trying to make me that way.
