[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have ADD and I'm on time. I know I am prone to forgetting things so I set timers to remind me to start getting ready. I start getting ready way before most people do because I know I need the extra time. I think that's what chronically late people are doing--not recognizing their shortcomings and learning from past mistakes. Develop mechanisms to cope and fix your problems instead of shrugging your shoulders and saying "that's just me"[/quote]

+1  I have ADHD and am always on time.  I know my natural tendency is to underestimate how long things will take so I compensate by giving myself extra time to get to my appointments.  I really hate waiting for other people too so I don't want to be late and make others wait for me.  Being late is incredibly rude.  By the time one is an adult, people with ADHD should have developed coping mechanisms for their condition.  If not, they are not fully functional adults.  ADHD is not an excuse for poor and rude behavior.  [/quote]
