I can't believe the responder had the gall to take personal attacks personally. Have they tried going outside more? If they didn't sit on their butt all day they might not be inclined to take my directed insults personally.

I know these sorts of comments are more welcome on Reddit than HN, but I chuckled and thanks for that.

I realize that posting that comment wasn't too helpful on my part, but people being dismissive of ADHD is probably the quickest way to get a rise out of me.
Sorry for being snarky. Not sorry for calling out destructive, unscientific bullshit.
* "Every child I know diagnosed with ADHD had parents who didn't want to deal with them."
* "look at the people you know on medication (or ask), look at the troubled children, etc. I guarantee you'll see the same trend"
* "likely have parents who just don't want / know how to deal with issues"
There's only a single phrase "not always the case, but it's a trend" that frames it as a societal issue on average, but that doesn't counter the incredibly general conclusions made by the poster.
