Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

And the amount of undiagnosed adults is missing. There are very little reasons why ADHD would just disappear when growing up. People simply suppress their emotions.

It's also conveniently missing that adults affected by ADHD are up to 6x more likely to also have depression than adults without ADHD.
Kind of an important point if you want your kid to actually live to adulthood.

Yeah. It's annoying when people pretend these things are superpowers by ignoring the negative effects which stigmatizes anyone struggling with it.

"There are famous people who succeeded with it! Many become business owners! Why are you still you? You're obviously not trying."

And let's see some statistics on those business owners.
Are they actually successful, or just 3x more likely to start a business on impulse and then 5x more likely to go bankrupt because of ADHD?

And your ADHD kid is 5 times more likely to use Linux or be on Lemmy lol
