Scare quotes because giving amphetamines to a kid and making them feel like they are flawed might actually lower their self esteem and condition them towards substance abuse instead of solving the problem, which is a greater need for inner discipline to overcome their condition.

I think you got this completely wrong.

AFAIK giving kids help, either medicines or otherwise makes kids lives better and reduces the risk of "self-medication".
