Proud to have co-authered this with @joannamoncrieff @JDaviesPhD & Lucy Johnstone.
Calling ADHD a ‘myth’ is misleading. But declaring it simply ‘real’, as though its scientific status were settled, is even more so.
Read why in our article for @bmj:

I am struck by how many psychiatrists are socially conservative: happy to use ADHD drugs to make children conform, rather than challenge or alter the environment the child is being forced conform to. `Your statement epitomises what is so wrong with the medical model....

People claiming they can’t work due to conditions such as ADHD and autism make other people with such diagnoses look bad.
ADHD and Autism are super powers, if you learn how to use them to your advantage.
Some of the cleverest individuals I know are autistic.
Normal is boring!
Stop acting like victims and complaining you’re going to lose your PIP.
Use your superpower.
Work smarter not harder!

The new docu 'Danny Dyer: How To Be A Man' is well worth a look. High points were Dyer's reaction to the lecture by @SeagerMJ, the contributions by @DrBecciOwens and @BBradley_Mans, and the sections on the mental health benefits of boxing.
More like this please, @Channel4 👍

‘Danny Dyer: How to Be a Man review – come on, geezer, is this really the best you can do?’
And right on cue we have a guardian journalist predictably & bitterly criticising @MrDDyer & @Channel4 for not addressing ‘toxic masculinity’

This is a great review! Some really important points that hopefully can be surfaced and explored in the future, but a really important first step.
Plus - can absolutely vouch for how powerful @SeagerMJ ‘s lectures are!
“Men are physically stronger & more aggressive than women. That’s a key difference & that’s surely part of the future of men as well as the past. But it doesn’t have to be dangerous…you can channel it in the right way”

They see boys being excluded at twice the rate of girls
They see Violence Against Women and Girls campaigns, but no campaigns for boys like them, unless they are about knife crime or criminality

Hugely important message from @fatherhoodinst which I completely agree with.
Dads are so important. We should never underestimate their importance to sons and daughters.
Boys really do need their dads in their lives. They need men to look up to and to guide them.
It is why I will continue in Parliament to campaign for better support for improvements in boys' education plus shout up for dads too.

Everyone needs to read this. Huge thanks to @BBCElaine for publicising. Behaviour is falling apart. Teacher assault is on the rise. Too many behaviour policies are facilitating this. bbc.co.uk/news/education-686…

OUR BOYS ARE LAGGING IN EDUCATION
As Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group for Issues affecting Men and Boys, I am too well aware of how important it is that we address this ongoing failure of our boys to thrive in education.
I am therefore looking forward to leading a Parliamentary debate on the educational attainment of boys in Parliament next week. on Tuesday 5 March at 9:30am in Westminster Hall. It will be online on Parliament TV or you can attend in person.
The debate should enable MPs to discuss the facts, issues, causes and importantly, the solutions. Including the feedback from those Headteachers who have successfully closed the gap between girls and boys. All of which has been covered in the latest @APPGMenBoys report which can be found here: ⬇️

MINISTER FOR MEN AND BOYS
Ahead of #InternationalMensDay, these shocking, worrying and sad figures show why we need a #MinisterforMenandBoys.
Now.
We need Government to take action. Show concern. The neglect of the problems Men and Boys face every day must stop.

Sure that say that, but I wonder if the term 'toxic masculinity' impacts your boys on an unconscious level? It's worth thinking about because my study of 4,000 men found that those who think masculinity is bad for their behaviour had worse mental wellbeing centreformalepsychology.com/…
