Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder has been running rampant in children and teens, with 11 percent of children between the ages of 4 and 17—nearly 6.5 million kids—having been diagnosed with the condition; but the number of diagnoses seems to be leveling.

In much of the 2000s, ADHD diagnoses were increasing each year by about 6 percent. That ratcheted down to about 4 percent between 2007 and 2011, and experts say that suggests doctors are getting closer to diagnosing most children who are afflicted with the disorder. (AP)
