[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dated someone like this in college. Nothing was ever his fault, and his mom excused and enabled him (from a distance) every step of the way. If he was running late and didn't lock his bike and it was stolen, she bought him a new one. She paid for his laundry service because using the dorm laundry room was too hard. Every paper was late, every extension requested every professor's patience exhausted. I was a naive 18 year old who had never encountered severe ADHD before and I thought she was a helicopter mom. Eventually I realized this is what she had to do to get him into college but she had no plan for what would happen when he was out of her house. And then I realized I was her plan. Reader, I dumped them. [/quote] Yes. All those DCUM posts by parents whose kids have ADHD and bury the lede that they ahd/or spouse have ADHD too... [/quote]
