Expecting teachers to be able to handle a population of kids struggling with this in the context of the current educational paradigm is unfair to both the kids and the teachers. When people use cannabis to treat Parkinson's and Autism Spectrum Disorders, are they really treating something underlying akathisia and other associated symptoms?
