Is it so in this case? What it "usually" means seems irrelevant. Have you been through a diagnosis with your kids?

I think you fail to realize that the burden of proof is not on me here.
The burden of proof falls on the one making the non trivial claim. I don’t need to prove the null hypothesis.
Wait, what, I'm not the GP, but:
Which claim are you referring to here?
1. Your unsubstantiated claim of ADHD being overdiagnosed
2. GP's unsubstantiated claim of "Every X knows Y"
The null hypothesis must be "ADHD diagnostic criteria has high specificity", because without that it's not diagnosis. What evidence do you have to demonstrate low specificity?
"Every X knows" is usually sign of agreeing on a conclusion based on gut feelings and without verifying if the arguments leading up to them hold water.
