Did I studder? If kids don't respond the way adults want them to, they get labeled as being a Problem.

That makes more sense, I just didn't get why you mentioned autism in your first comment. Seems like an odd take to me.

Advertising/Propaganda doesn't work as well on people with Autism. I called it a mental illness because regardless of what flowery language society decides to use to describe neurodivergent people, they will treat them like pariahs.
