[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. Everyone is talking past each other. OP’s points are valid and valuable, and an important reminder — perhaps *especially* to those of us (waves hand) with neurodivergent kids.

It’s too bad that OP layered on top of these meaningful insights subjective judgments and broad generalizations, like all-caps “LAZINESS” and statements like “these kids are clearly being raised without consequences.”[b] It’s these things, not the underlying points, that invited people to say “actually, it can be more complicated than mere parental neglect and child laziness.”[/b]

The skills are essential. And also, it can be more complicated. Both things are true. What would be most useful would be tips for helping kids get there — especially from parents whose kids took longer than peers to gain the skills. [/quote]
It CAN be. But often (usually, TBH) it's not. [/quote]

Sure, okay. So…what then? Are we just venting and blaming? What moves the discussion, and families/kids, forward? [/quote]
