My working theory is that abuse damages (and neglect stunts) the reward system and we interpret that as ADHD (as good a moniker as any).
Whereas people typically experience micro-rewards during the learning process, for people with ADHD, the reward response is too insufficient to reinforce learning. Without a proper reward system, a healthy learning system can't develop properly.
Some people firehose Will at the problem which may overcome an occasional challenge. That bandaid isn't sustainable, however.
