A study, “Attention deficit hyperactivity symptoms and Internet addiction” conducted by Hee Jeong Yoo, and his colleagues in South Korea, evaluated the relationship between attention deficit-hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms and internet addiction on 752 11-year olds. Their findings show that those who had ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) had a higher internet addiction score. Past high school protests were never as violent until early in the 1990s when boys at the St. Kizito Mixed High School invaded the girls’ dorms and raped 70 girls leaving 19 dead. Then Nyeri High School students locked four of their prefects in a room and burnt them with petrol. We must stop the knee-jerk reaction of appointing commissions and seek to comprehensively deal with high school violence in Kenya.
