    No and no. At least not what I had in mind. It was a recent movie release, by Pixar.

    1. One can become "addicted" to anything they enjoy.
    2. ADHD doesn't exist.

    ADHD is something my son suffers from as does his uncle. It is real and can be successfully treated with medication.

    Symptom:
    avoid or dislike tasks that require sustained mental effort, including homework or schoolwork


    Apparently just about every damn kid on the planet suffers from ADHD and should be on medication... it's a scam and an excuse for parents who don't want to deal with their kids.
