Yep. My only point was like welfare queens buying lobstah and BAFSTV's that


doesn't make the concept of food stamps (or accommodations in this case) invalid, and thus should be ended entirely. It just means they need to clean up the system of hoo qualifies and how. I have little doubt there are plenty out there gaming the system to turn it into an advantage they don't deserve. And I would imagine with something like ADHD and anxiety, there is still a bit of subjectivity to the diagnosis. Or disallowing it. (Although my better half has had students that were not approved for accommodations by the school, yet they were far from your "average" student.) And I would assume the wealthier and better educated the parents, the easier it is for them to push for the diagnosis, and harder it is to disallow it.
