I think it depends on time and place and what the general view is at that time. A psychologist wanted to diagnose my youngest brother with ADHD when he was six, but our mom said to wait and see how he'd develop and mature instead. He's about to turn 13 now and does not fit the criteria at all.
And at the same time there are people out there that do have ADHD but don't get diagnosed so... yeah, it's a matter of time and place and resources perhaps.
