Is ADHD Being Overdiagnosed? + Pro-Lifers Compared to the KKK?!

Wretched Radio with Todd Friel

Show Notes

Is ADHD being overdiagnosed? Todd challenges some common assumptions about children, medicine, and education before Todd and Jimmy decide which of several outrageous stories is the most agitating.

Segment 1

• Is ADHD really a medical condition—or are we medicating kids who simply don't fit the system?

• What if your child isn't broken... but simply learns differently?

• Why parents shouldn't let academic performance define their child's potential.

Segment 2

• Are we too quick to trust a diagnosis simply because it comes from a medical professional?

• Texas Children's Hospital is accused of using false diagnoses to bill Medicaid for gender procedures.

• Why viability and a heartbeat aren't the strongest arguments for when human life deserves protection.

Segment 3

• Adam Hamilton defends the idea that people can be saved without knowing Jesus—but does his argument work?

• A televangelist who declared he'd never go to jail is now behind bars for obstructing the IRS.

• His church is still encouraging people to send money to their imprisoned “anointed leader.”

Segment 4

• A man confessed to murdering a pastor and asked to be executed—so why is the case still dragging on?

• Another Duggar family scandal raises questions about crime, punishment, and accountability.

• A restaurant owner kicks out a pro-life group and compares them to the KKK—but does a private business have the right to do that?
