I like the hot stove example, no matter how hard you think about it you will never be able to do it, unless you forget about it for a second. Though, ADHD is not that easy.

Maybe it’s early in the morning and I am not quite awake, but I have no idea what you are talking about. Nor do I understand how forgetting to do something makes you able to do something, and somehow that relates to a hot stove?

Can you explain what the “hot stove” example is? Maybe that is what I’m missing.

Research shows a strong link between retained primitive reflexes and symptoms of ADHD like fidgeting and an inability to concentrate. Reflexes are unconscious muscle movements that happen in response to certain stimuli. For instance, if you touch a hot stove, your body jerks your hand away automatically.
