Yeah, I did word that comment very poorly. That said, an article linked down in the thread did list environment (particularly, parental neglect or abuse) as one of the possible causes of ODD. In no way is it a defense of the original (now removed) comment, but it being real doesn’t make bad parents good. Just as ADHD being real doesn’t make bad teachers good.
