The only one that's feasible is the ADHD/Ritalin thing. I don't know what you think schools or life are like in 2010, but you are clearly very confused. The rest of these \"2010\" situations are unrealistic overreactions that I doubt would ever occur.

Thank you for your response, this was intended to be a very light hearted article to make people smile.
With regards to education in “2010”. I am the head of student inclusion in a School for Children with Severe Social, Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties; I therefore believe I have a slight understanding of the education system and life in general.
I was hoping to bring a smile to the faces of people that are older and experienced the old education system.
Take care Have a good day.
