I read somewhere that his Mom put him in swimming because he was diagnosed with ADHD.
Hoping to not offend anyone, I am 100% against medicating a kid who has been "diagnosed" with ADHD. Hyper kids in my day had a football placed in their hands or sneakers tied on their feet and were made to be physically active until they exhausted themselves...not all parents have the time to workout with their kids...and with the physical education system within our schools being the joke, I can understand why so many children are being diagnosed with this disorder...I blamed tv and video games and computers for the symptoms, but lack of exercise for the overall condition. Color me ignorant, foolish...whatever. Its just my theory/belief and I guess my main complaint here is that some people are quick to give their kids drugs/meds as a quick fix instead of working on a long term solution - with exercise/physical activity.
Sorry I went off on a tangent, but this Phelps kid is amazing...not sure what went down with his Pops though!
