I am not a medical expert but I do not think it would be great surprise to people to learn that medication is prescribed in some cases of ADHD. That is not uncommon. There may not be any surprises there because it is not unusual for young people to be medicated or offered prescriptions for ADHD, depending I presume on what problems are presenting. I am trying to be sensitive with language and avoid being pejorative.

It is in the other presenting areas where many of the problems arose, though, and there was inappropriate and unusual prescribing.
