You're taking the meme way too seriously. For one, drugs aren't a standard treatment for ODD. From the Mayo Clinic:

Treatment for oppositional defiant disorder primarily involves family-based interventions. But treatment may include other types of talk therapy and training for your child โ€” as well as for parents. [...] Medicines alone generally aren't used for ODD unless your child also has another mental health condition.
