Friends--

60 years ago the hyperactive child is a Hero. He milks the cows, feeds the chickens, baskets the eggs, slops the pigs, harnesses the team, plows the field, gathers the harvest, saddles the horse, rides the range, drives the car, cuts the wood, mows lawns, picks cotton, reads novels, dates girls, sweeps the house, mops the kitchen, boy scouts, plays sports, deerhunts with his father, goes to dances, practices the piano, sings in the choir, plays in the orchestra, attends school, travels widely, and engages in sundry other activities.

Today--trapped in megalopolis--the hyperactive child is a villain and given damaging medication.   Henry Ratliff
