My understanding is that ADHD is highly heritable, so if you have it, likely she does, too.
And of course, with “command resistance”(?) layered on top, being told to do/not do something just makes it even harder.
I’m •still• recovering from the trip my mother laid on me about that, 40+ years later. Maybe Dani’s image above will provide an entry point for a more productive conversation!

I occasionally wonder how my life would be different if my mother had the resources & wisdom available that we do now. I’m 100% sure she meant well, but damn she left me with a lot of damage.
Props to you for doing the work!
