If I imagine my kid hunting, I see him quiet, hyper-focused, fully committed to get the beast down.

- falcolas 11y agoIf I imagine myself hunting, I can't. I see myself too focused on creating the perfect spear (and never achieving it because I "squirrel" off onto another spear building tangent) to actually bother myself with the act of hunting. Not to mention, one of the common symptoms of ADHD is bumping into objects when walking around. I can't imagine that going well on a hunting trip.

- lfowles 11y agoThe thing about ADHD is that you really don't get to pick what you hyperfocus on. Some days you may be focused on getting that beast, other days you may find an interesting termite mound that grabs your attention while on the hunt.
