I ended up on r/ADHDparenting (a subreddit about parenting kids with ADHD, not about being a parent with ADHD) and Jesus fuck.
Imagine how much r/childfree hates kids, but the only people allowed to post in this sub are parents.
“My kindergartener asks me a ton of questions every morning i wish i could give her her meds while she was still asleep so that she would shut the fuck up by the time she’s awake”
“My 4-9 year old child is the most annoying person in the planet and I can’t wait until he’s old enough for a prescription because if he stays like this I’m just going to keep hating him.”
“If he’s too young for vyvanse start him on caffeine but no sugar! Half a can of diet cola with breakfast should be a good place to start.”
“I started giving my kid her meds before she gets out of bed so that they kick in by breakfast time and I don’t have to deal with her constant fidgeting and incessant talking.”
Look I do understand the need to vent but an entire subreddit that seems to confirm the worst things that kids with ADHD think of themselves (my parents hate me, I’m too annoying to love, nobody will like me if I don’t shut myself down, everyone thinks I’m loud and stupid and they laugh about me behind my back, my mom wishes i was like my brother, if they could flip a switch to make me into someone else they would, they would rather have any child but me, anybody would rather have any child but me) seems fucking ghastly. THIS is the kind of shit you put in a private discord server, c'mon.
