The frequency with which “learning disorders” and “ADHD” are diagnosed in schools is proportional to the presence and influence within the schools of behavioral diagnosticians, testers and therapists.  Today, American schools spend at least $1 billion a year on psychologists who work full-time to diagnose students.  Annually, $15 billion has been spent on the diagnosis, treatment and study of these so-called “disorders.”  The sales of stimulants alone to control the symptoms of ADHD have now reached $4.8 billion annually.  But what's the real cause of these so-called “disorders?”  Today's guest, retired school psychologist Etta K. Brown, discovered there are actual physical underlying conditions which impact a child's ability to stay focused in the classroom. Having a learning disability doesn't mean a student can't learn. It just means that some students learn differently requiring specific instructional aids or different teaching strategies.
