While I do realize this is supposed to be a joke, some of the info is not exactly true.

2010 - Jeffrey is given huge doses of Ritalin. He becomes a zombie. He is then
tested for ADD. The family gets extra money (SSI) from the government because
Jeffrey has a disability.

ADD in not considered a disability, and SSI won't pay anything for it. As a matter of fact, my youngest son is Autistic, and that's not even classified as a disability in NYS, so he gets no SSI. My wife, who has been declared legally blind, also gets nothing from SSI because I have a job and supposedly make too much money. This state is fucked.
I do agree though, life was much simpler when I was a kid.
