Dear Mr. Gibbons,

Thank you so much for your note calling my attention to the incorrect headline that we published on our story about ADHD. You are right our headline did not represent the studys conclusions. Ive corrected the headline and also added a correction note to the story itself. The new headline reads: Moms fish eating may affect childs ADHD risk, study says.

Once again, thank you for alerting us to this problem.

Best regards,

Linda Dahlstrom
