This is definitely the same thing that happens to mothers of children diagnosed with #Dyslexia. Our kids are treated as a behavior until they break & then mom says “THEY CANT READ! WHAT PART OF HE IS DYSLEXIC DID YOU MISS” It is statistically impossible not to have a dyslexic in your family.
The blame-the-mother thesis for autism has been around for decades. But in recent years, with the rise of wellness influencers and sweeping theories about trauma, the willingness to blame moms for ADHD is resurgent.
“It is easy to create a simple villain that people can foment outrage about.”
“It is easy to create a simple villain that people can foment outrage about.”
No, moms aren't to blame for ADHD
Despite what one popular theory might make you believe.

Bernie could have put a stop to this in 2016, 2020 & all the years in-between & since. But he has not. He could change the course of history, right now, & say, "We must all work together to defeat fascism." But he doesn't do that. Instead, he trashes the one path we have: The Democratic party.

Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:

In 2023, a Mexican girl, 4, was allowed U.S. entry for lifesaving medical care. She and her parents, who live in Bakersfield, have been told they must leave.

Imagine knowing the head of your religion was like “I would rather die than talk to this loser” and then doing it. How do you even recover from that?
