I am not sure if laziness really exists. But there are countless reasons why someone can have this issue. Additional ones are: a physical lack of energy (nutrition deficit, sleep deficit, etc.), decision or option paralysis, problems handling emotions, trauma, .....
I'm sorry but laziness definitely exists. This is just going too far.
Idk, my parents and teachers were 100% sure it was laziness for years, they didn't seem confused about it at all. It wasn't until I was diagnosed as an adult in college that there was any confusion.
Confusingly, confused with and confused by do not mean the same thing
That reminds me: isn't it weird how Confucius seemed so certain about everything? Much moreso than most neurotypicals, even!
Well, they were wrong. They may not have felt confused. But they were confusing laziness for ADHD.
