Was a kid in the 60's and early 70's myself as well. Never heard of the word back then. Got the impression nowadays that if a kid is just slightly different, it's already being "categorised" as ADHD.

These days it seems like the medical and mental health professions have grown obsessed with "medicalizing" every aspect of the normal human condition... and the target described as "normal" gets smaller and smaller all the time... meaning that we ALL have some kind of "syndrome" in need of being fixed.
