First I would like to clarify some issues, some of my teachers did suspect I had ADD, but my parents didn’t want to medicate me or test me for it. I am thankful that they never medicated me because I did fine in school with out medication.

The biggest reason I feel others with ADD shouldn’t get extra time is because I worked hard to overtime my ADD and I don’t see why others can’t overcome there ADD without any medication or being babied. I don’t see why people like to think of ADD as a learning disability when it isn’t.

I am not trying to offend anyone, and I am sorry if I did./
