As someone who's not dealt with ADHD, could you explain what the mobility component is needed for?

That's a little different to most ADHD 'sufferers', I think you'll find. Most kids go to school like the rest of them - at least you're a good parent.

I know - I've filled in plenty of their lovely long forms.

(And, the 'meal ticket' is a meal ticket, in that case. I grant that there are many serious cases of ADHD that do deserve Carers' as well as the mobility (can travel on public transport) and care components of DLA, but in a lot of cases, the kids are living on normal kids - when they take their medication. I can't see the point of compensating people for being who they are - there has to be a good medical reason for them needing that money!)
