While kids are now more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD due to increased awareness and better diagnostic methods, this can also lead to an interesting "reverse echo" effect where their parents have a sudden realization that they're ADHD too.

Hearing about the symptoms from a doctor talking about your child can be an eye-opener that stuff we called "laziness" and "being too sensitive" back in the 80s might have a better name.
