Is your teen lazy—or could it be time blindness?

[00:00:00]This is not a character flaw or deficit.

[00:00:02]I tell young people all the time like there is a difference in how your brain is functioning and I can even prove it to you because we do know that for some people with the use of stimulant medication that actually time blindness can be significantly reduced in that way. So, I can prove to you that like it is a brain difference. You're not just an irresponsible lazy. And so, it is so important for people to kind of understand what time blindness is for themselves, for parents, for teachers because then we can have a little bit more agency to understand where this is coming from. It's not purposeful, it's not intentional. And then, what can we do?
