I have a gut feeling that this is because of parenting. I think parenting methods these days dont work. I think it is perfectly okay to use fear of punishment to discipline kids. From what I see today, most kids dont have a limit that they wouldn’t cross. There is no fear from their father/mother/authority figure that can set them on the right track. My gf works with kids, the stories I hear are absolutely mind boggling. Children show up to school with only cookies/chocolate for lunch/breakfast. Discipline at home is nonexistent. Parents give their kids an ipad and call it good. Girls are generally calmer and have an easier time focusing than boys. so maybe its a case of boys having exacerbated effects because of their natural tendencies.
