Re: Personality traits

ADHD, ADD, autism, etc are not “personality traits”. Feel free to call it whatever you want. It was what popped in my head. Not sure I feel the need to get all legalistic about it. I also don’t think being autistic or ADHD is an excuse for being rude, unkind, or behaving in socially inappropriate m...

Personality traits

I have a child who is neurodivergent, a sibling, an uncle, cousins and several close friends. It does NOT mean autistic. Someone with ADHD or ADD is considered neurodivergent. Personally I hate labels, but they can help us to understand one another at times, especially when we are not relating face...
