Those that complain of depression. They've never seen true depression!!!!
It's a mental health issue if you are famous and monied. And their speed of recovery is nothing short of remarkable in many cases.
It's shirking and you need to pull yourself together if you are Mr/Mrs Average.
ADHD and autism are just cop outs to justify bad behaviour that was never addressed properly when people were you kids. I'm assuming many of us are around the mid 50s plus on here. Where was ADHD when we were kids? It didn't exist. It's a problem that has developed as people have begun to want everything for nothing and can't accept being told , no.
I'll offer an example from work. What can best be described as a feral 20 yr old arrived. He was used to getting his own way. If he was asked to wait or told no. He would destroy property, be it his own or anyone else's. So what did people do? Give him what he wanted. Why? Because it's easier than trying to change his behaviour. He arrived with us, was given an IPad which in a tantrum he smashed up. The response was, another IPad. Which he has since smashed up. He would demand a drink. If asked to wait until his demands could be met, he would smash his room up. I refused to ask how high when he said jump. If he waited he got what he wanted. If he damaged anything he didn't. It's taken me a year to get him to say please and thank. But now he says it, to me at least. He wasn't born feral he was allowed to go that way. And the worse his behaviour got, the easier it became to give him what he wanted to pacify him temporarily.
There are too many people today following that path. Because, as they say on talent shows when asked. "Why should you become a star?" They reply. "Because I deserve it." Rant over!
