I learned more about the correlations between the factors of genetics and environmental as well as homework and reading comprehension. I also learned more about its effect on twins which I had no idea how significant that results would be.

Some children have needed the medication, but many have been misunderstood, mistreated, mislabeled and misdiagnosed, because there has always been a subtle implication that something was always wrong with them, rather than something right.
