Oh man, there’s a whole ADHD anger thing with kids not getting what they’re told to expect.
You dont get mad if someone lies or missleads you?
No, not like that.
More like: Johnny says he’ll be here at three. Johnny shows up at 3:25. Kid is pissed he wasn’t there at 3.
Or: Hey, we might go out for pizza next Friday. Kid hears Friday=Pizza, and gets pissed because some other thing got in the way of pizza and didn’t hear the “might” part.
Nobody lied with the intent to deceive or mislead. Just life happens.
Oh, yea thats true, us adhd can be like that 100%
