There are people with legitimate mental health issues. However there are those that use it as a vehicle for clout. What do you think?

@Lilnonames I’ve seen this boy practically bouncing off the walls because when he was in 2nd grade his teacher encouraged parents to send birthday cupcakes to school for their child’s birthday, loaded with sugar and food dyes. I could tell when he came home and started knocking things over and squirming around that he had eaten something sweet & I would ask him. That teacher would let them eat those cupcakes the last 30 minutes of class and then send the kids home for the parents to deal with. There is a pediatrician who has said that sugar consumption is the link to hyperactivity disorder because it stimulates the neurotransmitter dopamine.
