Drugs and kids...
We didn't have ADHD when I was a kid. (It hadn't been invented yet :)) We had discipline and were held accountable for our actions. Sometimes painfully accountable. :)
Boy howdy, that's the truth. My mom had a big black belt that she would take to us kids, it made you sit up and pay attention, I'll tell you! Miss Violet

I felt the belt or the paddle or the lilac switch more than once :)
