[quote=Anonymous] It's ADHD with no manners. I know people are tired of hearing about it, but that mental illness, if untreated, will turn people into jerks. I have ADHD and am never late, but that's because I also have anxiety and want to please people. My husband's side of the family has ADHD without anxiety or any wish to please, and they are systematically late to everything. My BIL can be several HOURS late to events. We have stopped waiting for him, obviously. The only way around it is boundaries. "Arrive by 10 or we'll have left already" That kind of thing. People with ADHD need very direct information because it's the only way it's going to be flagged in their memory. Being diplomatic dilutes the message in a sea of words and it gets lost. [/quote]
