Re: Which person is worse?

The difference between medically trained and medically untrained people:

A spoilt, disruptive, attention seeking child/teenager with no respect for others, can be viewed by the untrained as 'a spoilt brat that needs a good slapping'

The medically trained expert however, would probably view them as a child/young adult with a mental disability that causes them to act this way, and the poor little lost souls need lots of care and support (and lawyers) to prevent them being classed as naughty.

Once the affected person grasps the idea that 'it isn't their fault', it gives them the excuse needed to carry on regardless, with the knowledge that there's an army of experts at hand to absolve them.

Just my thoughts on the matter, and it's quite possible I'm the only person in the world that thinks like this . . . probably my fault due to refusing to get into the box society assigned to me.
