George Lynn has sub-titled his article The Challenge of Attention-Different Boys.

In the course of this fascinating and provocative article he asks a most intriguing question: "Could it be that the emergence of so many Attention Different kids in the last decade or so is part of nature's self- healing process? Could it be that they are harbingers of the profound changes that the ecosystem is experiencing and will experience and the special allies that are needed to revision what is required for all our survival? Could it be that mythological wisdom is resonating with ecological wisdom here?"

George Lynn draws heavily on his personal experience of a son suffering from Tourette's Syndrome.
