Attention Deficit Disorder Takes A Life
You will have to excuse the rather dramatic headline, but I am in no mood for subtelty. I get sort of cranky when I open my National Post and find out that a boy who used to have no bigger problem than staying alert in school has died, thanks to his "ADD medication". This happened five years ago, so although his death is still upsetting, what really has me fuming is the fact that little seems to have been learned from this tragedy.

Conditions of Joint Attention: Connecting
<br>In her book, <I>Apprenticeship in Thinking: Cognitive Development in Social Context </I>(1990), Barbara Rogoff spends a fair amount of time going over the concept of joint attention, particularly in the parent-child relationship. A lot of people might refer to this as “connecting” with a child, but I think there’s something about the word “connecting” that makes the process seem magical and beyond the control of an individual. Establishing joint attention, on the other hand, is an effortful process – not in the sense that it is difficult to do, or even that it has to be done consciously, but in the sense that it is a process in which two people choose to engage.
