Exactly. Boys get over diagnosed for issues because their energy level is not compatible with modern education rules. Funny how many of these conditions never existed when children were taught in different formats (apprenticeship, outdoor learning, Socratic learning) vs sitting still for 8 hours watching PowerPoint slides non stop.
Man, even 30-50 years ago was so neat. Hearing stories about high school students being involved in programs to work with other schools and build houses and neighborhoods under professional craftsmen and such.
The value of that kind of experience, from carpentry, to education on electrical wiring, to exterior and interior designs, plumbing, the list goes on..those are invaluable, and getting kids involved with that so young creates a spark in so many possibilities and sets them up on a good path.
