I think that what you said towards the end completely explains the, ummm, “epidemic” of ADD and ADHD in this country. Have you ever explored Bill and Melinda Gate's Foundation's experimental high school? It's the type of school that has an open environment where students are allowed the freedom to pursue the areas they are most interested in. If you are so inclined, they have a website that tells all about the project and how it has turned out so far. It's very hopeful, and should be supported.
