    “I was good at math until they added letters”

    “I used to get straight A’s”

    “I was gifted untill they realised I was neuro divergent”

    Bro you’re dumb now. Why should anyone care that you were above average as a literal child.

      There is something to consider though if we are not helping people realize their full potential.

      And I doubt that anyone truly gifted as a child is dumb now. Innate intelligence doesn’t just whiff away.

        realizing your potential is your job. not anyone else’s. especially as an adult.

        stop blaming other people for your failures and lack of drive. if you are unhappy with our life go change it up and become happy.

      straight A’s

      Well, at least you’re creative with your choice of punctuation across the board. 😅🤷🏼‍♂️
