It seems like te stupidest thing to me. Why are you going to attack someone who has politely asked you and/or your child to behave themselves or at least stop actively doing something harmful

Why the hell would they disincentivize their kids when someone has just given them an out to have a teachable moment and possibly nudge their kid behave better and possibly for the parent?

    Maybe the kid has ADHD level 2 and the parents are doing absolutely everything humanly possible already?

      I don’t think that’s the scenario we’re talking about here.

      I went undiagnosed for nearly 40 years and now I have three with very different levels and styles of ADHD.

      There’s a difference between cutting the kids some slack because they are neurodivergent (hopefully they are still being held accountable and are being taught that they can’t do whatever they want without consequences) and reacting with “That’s impossible! My sweet baby would NEVER do that! You must be lying!” anytime you learn about what they’ve done.
