Neurodivergence isn’t “fixed” by “discipline,” it’s only hidden and suppressed. It hurts the world when we lose the strengths offered by neurodiversity. By denying access to support others in realizing their potential, we’re just screwing ourselves.

I was physically and psychologically punished as a child - I still have ADHD. All the punishment did was make me believe I was stupid and incapable. When I finally sought treatment my life improved - Cs and Ws to As, productive at work, finishing things I started, less impulsive spending.
