Reading the whole article probably doesn't really repay the time you'd spend, but it's at least nice to see a mainstream news outlet noticing the dilemma about special education (as it's called) that I always used to wonder about back when I was in school:

...The realm of work is a universe away from the realm of education for those with A.D.D. In the public-school system, a child's diagnosis is like an admission ticket; districts are obligated to help students whose learning is impaired by their A.D.D. In the world of work, the burden is on the A.D.D. employee to help himself.
