Camden Maple is a typical young boy, according to his stepmother, Katie Maple. He’s energetic and “rambunctious,” acting out in class when he gets bored “like children sometimes do.” According to her, the Bowman Primary School in Lebanon, Ohio believes his rambunctious side stems from ADHD. According to the Maples, Camden’s behavior stems from not being challenged in the classroom.
Todd Yohey, Superintended of Bowman Primary, refused to comment as to what disruptive behaviors Camden exhibited that caused the school to suggest a doctor’s visit, citing confidentiality laws.
According to the Maples, the school attempted several times to get the Maples to have their son diagnosed with ADHD and medicated, but they refused. As Katie Maple stated on her GoFundMe page, “we as parents do not have the problems the school claims to have with him, at home. We know how to deal with a rambunctious 7 year old, but the school is content with making him believe that he is a bad child, we disagree.”

So now just because some teacher who has studied education to teach is a medical expert?
Another government over reach. Lawyer up and sue. Definite mental anguish.
CPS has WAAAAAYYYY too much power even around here. Judges need to be better at following the law, not the police/ teachers' emotions.
Homeschool.
I lived this nightmare and pulled my child and put him in Salisbury Christian school where he did well and he never went on ADHD medication. I said then and I will say now.....there should be a lock placed on the teachers lounge so that teachers cannot sit and build a case against your child that follows them all the way through their years in school.
Its a two way street.
Amen, my daughter has aspergers, shes extremely smart and they labelled her a "problem child" years ago, they refused to accomidate her aspergers but instead labelled her "emotional problems", took her out and her home schooled for the last 4 years. And yes, they paid for it!
