Conflicted here. On the one hand, I agree that it's easier to say, "That's just the way I am, deal with it." On the other hand, folks deal with things like ADHD and depression and different cultural upbringings that make it more difficult for them to, say, remember things than "normal" people. Feels like the author is using his dad as a sample size of one as evidence for a broad statement here.
