What exactly is ODD disorder ?

Postby Copy_Cat » Fri Apr 06, 2012 8:12 am

We know its not in any way medical at all, So it must be learned.

We also know its a list of behavoirs voted into existence by the amercan psychiatric association.

But still it must be learned, right ?

How do you know that? We don't know.
I should think like many things it could be genetic or learned or even more likely a genetic predisposition influenced by environment.

That was a bad reply, my laptop batter was going out and I rushed it. Genetic ? no

Nothing "psychiatric" can be found with a dna test so far.

I think the music industry had played a part in making ODD

"bitches and Hoes" or grab my 9mm... smoken and selling, im da man...

That STUPID music the kids listen to , it gets deep in there heads.

My 12 year old son has ODD and he listens to Tupac, if you aren't familiar with him he's a supportive and caring rapper not the type who talk about cars, popping bottles in club and violence and his upbringing was fine he had plenty of resources, didn't play too violent games and he was disciplined but the disciplined didn't help. We noticed something was delayed and he started showing alot of signs when he was around 5 but didn't get diagnosed until he was 11

It is an imaginary disorder invented by teachers unions so they can have a better excuse to single out "bad" kids and punish them until their spirits are broken.

Kids aren't supposed to spend eight hours a day sitting in desks getting fat. Public school is child abuse (most private schools too). When they act "defiant" it's usually because they are being tormented. They haven't been fully domesticated yet. It's like trying to break a horse. You put them in an unnatural position, then get upset when they rightfully act out, then punish them until they give in and submit to the learned helplessness.

How are all genetic inheritances useful? Progeria doesn't seem very useful. Neither is fragile X syndrome (the leading cause of mental retardation), or cystic fibrosis.

You got me on that one, daa deerr... I think I was way into reading this at the time about adhd and was way into it and not paying attention.


" One of the more controversial approaches to ADHD is the =Hunter versus Farmer= theory, which holds that the disorder is indeed genetic, but far from being a disadvantage, was an evolutionary asset thousands of years ago when our ancestors were nomadic hunter-gatherers. The idea is that many of the typical traits attributed to ADHD — such as impulsivity and novelty-seeking — were beneficial at a time when our forebears were struggling to survive in harsh and uncertain pre-agricultural, subsistence environments.

Researchers tested the theory using data from the northern Kenyan Ariaal tribe. About 35 years ago, the tribe essentially split in two, when some members who had been nomadic settled down into an agricultural way of life. Both factions of the tribe were tested for the DRD4 7R+ allele, a genetic variation linked to ADHD symptoms. The study found that the still-nomadic members who had the variant allele were generally healthier than those who lacked it. Conversely, the “agricultural” tribe members exhibited the opposite effect: Those with the allele associated with ADHD fared worse than those lacking it, mirroring the situation in, for instance, the U.S. "

ODD sounds like its caused by a combination of #######5 parenting and #######5 public school (which is most of them)

Or just a pathologising of anti athoritarianism in generl..
