The test to get a driver’s license needs to be wayyyyyyyyy harder than it is.

I think we have more accurate diagnosis now. Like when we thought mental issues were possession by the devil, we have more nuanced and more accurate diagnosing.
I also think it's true that a lot of the environment, technology, lifestyle, work etc. helps these disorders to develop easily. Similar to the fact that zoochosis exists in zoo, but not in nature. You take an animal, confine it, deprive it out if it's natural habitat and environment and it will eventually develop mental issues and disorders. They sway frantically as a result and are with actual mental disorders /diseases.
I also think some people do self diagnose and over exaggerate their issues, but I believe they're way less than what's the actual number of people with these problems. Hence not a big issue imo.
Several truths can exist in the same time

Agreed, I've seen a few adults get these diagnoses and then make it their whole personality.
Everything and anything is now run through the filter of their "affliction".

I agree. I've thought that for a long while. I also believe medical professionals are obsessed with "diagnosing" people with something. It culminates into prescriptions.

That's probably true.
Also a lot more ADHD and autism exists now than there used to be bc everyone is on their phones scrolling for 431980327043198023487432 hours a day instead of going outside.

Seems like too many people have ADHD or neurodiverent these days. If you patholigize it, you don't have to take as much accountability for it.

Not all kids art is good. In fact, most of it is bad.

@Ranconteur It's lovely . . but some pictures require careful interpretation 🙃 The only criticism I would ever offer is if a child has failed to fill every inch of the paper with colour 🌈

@SunshineGirl that’s fair. Mad props when they put in loads of effort, absolutely.

@Ranconteur Fair enough

Parenting is a communal effort requiring the participation of parents, family, friends, and state organisations. The mere fact of giving birth does not somehow magically endow a person with superb parenting skills.

Why on earth would anyone want that? I finger upset with the number of "comfort animals!"

We're just better at diagnosing it, and at figuring out is isn't an on/off switch, but a gradient.
