I felt the Ken Robinson video was very informative .I agree most strongly with the points it made about children with ADHD being a epidemic today .I believe that doctors are just diagnosing children and medicating them without really examining the real problems. I agree these children should not be drugged up with different medicines because this is not helping them. "This medicine is deadening the senses instead of awakening them". These children just need to be taught differently.  Teachers need to find a better way to guide these children to the appropriate content.We see so many of these situations in today's classroom. I have had a teacher tell me her student is on ADHD medication and he is like a zombie, he is barely functioning. The video moved so fast that was all that really stuck out to me, and grasped my attention.
