    Yes, rabies is very rare in the US, and the top exposures to rabies for this country are Bats, Raccoons, Skunks and Foxes.

    ADHD people can also be people that give up on doing much anything and don’t try in school, getting bad grades, because they can’t hold and organize information the way normative people do. They’re not dumb, they just have a really hard time absorbing information in traditional ways taught at schools, along with having a hard time focusing on that info.
