In Finland, kids go to school from 9am to 2pm, have v few tests, & all kids have to have 15 minutes of play for every 45 minutes of learning. Only 0.1 percent of their kids have severe attention problems.

Attention problems are unrelated to school unless it has to do with bullying at school.

It's the way it should be instead of training kids to sit still and learn to be work horses early on

Good nutrition, parenting and teachers goes a long way.

In Finland, private schools are outlawed. When the children of the rich and the poor all have to go to the same schools, that's good for the children and for society at large. Just one of the many ways America should start following their lead.

I have like 40% of my classes parents trying to get their kids adderall for ADHD. These parents would rather get their kids a pill than take the time to even ask their kid why they aren’t paying attention
