My own brother has ADHD diagnosed at about 8 years old. He’s 37 now and no longer taking Ritalin as he manages his issues through diet, exercise and manual labour work. He’s worked in retail, IT and even did fitness instructor for a couple of years but he works better outside, alone with his hands. He had a lot of support from my mother, counselling as a teen etc and he still had a very tough time unfortunately he fell in with the wrong people when he was 18ish and experimented with drugs. This escalated his condition and made him even more angry and hyper.
it’s a lifelong limiting condition for him that he has tried to change and make the most of for the better. Dee disgusts me, she has a beautiful little girl who she is exploiting online for money and attention. She’s making assumptions and putting labels on a very young child, not accepting that her parents, diet, and environment are all major factors in her current behaviour. She’s also developmentally meeting milestones and testing boundaries etc perfectly normal. My own son is 2 and a half and he has awful tantrums sometimes but he is learning now the meaning of ‘no’ whether that comes to having sweets before dinner, hitting our dog, trying to run across the road, whatever it is. It’s my job to support him and help him through these emotions.
I think she’s really looking for something to be wrong with her child. All children are unique with their own personalities she’s not respecting that at all and just looking for excuses for poor parenting. She’s a disgrace
