Adding to the previous comment, I've notice that many parents are very careful when they give their children medication as well, so that the kids are focused at the appropriate times and ensuring that the meds will have faded by the time school is out.
It isn't easy to give kids these types of medication, but at the same time, when it's used appropriately kids can grow to learn to manage the medication in different environments when it is necessary.
I know a couple adults who have eventually stopped needing any medication because they've chosen careers and environments that fit their personality, unfortunately given the school system, it is a difficult environment for everyone to fit into.
The original story is a great way for kids to get together and help each other through processes as well.
