Not really, though. Rigid structure helps with ADHD, but only when someone else is enforcing the structure. Prepubescent kids with ADHD aren't typically capable of maintaining their own structure. They aren't neurotypical, it's more than distraction and energy, they have a functioning issue. They can't tune out all the stimulus that normal brains do, and because of it they miss a lot of social cues that help with development.

My son has ADHD and no amount of reorienting our family environment would help him - he could (and has) literally be in a bare concrete room with nothing but his thoughts and get distracted and slam his hands together making exploding/punching sounds for hours, where a typical kid would get bored in seconds.

    There is an extension called "Social Fixer" that brings back the sort by new and allows you to filter out all the 'sponsored' and 'suggested' bullshit. It's not being actively updated anymore, but it still works fine.

    How about we just scrap the ISP instead and start over with a company that can list what they are charging for? This isn't hard. Either it's a legitimate fee or it's not. I have a feeling they just don't want to disclose that they have been ripping people off for a few extra bucks every bill for the last decade.

    Honestly, the trick will be to get every new mother to take it by default. Everyone always thinks they're fine... until they're not. Feeling overwhelmed and 'blue' is very common, it's the postpartum psychosis that is the problem and there is no way to tell whether someone is just going to get tearful or drown their baby. So, I think it should just be routine for mom to take this for a few weeks postpartum.

    They need to chill on releasing new generation consoles for a while (All of them, not just Nintendo). Give the current generation time for the game devs to fully utilize them. This constant upgrade in hardware for consoles is getting rather tired.
