Horrifying documentary about bad parenting... I mean, about suppressing natural differences in character.... No wait, I mean, about feminazis who have lost touch with their maternal instincts.... Hold on, no, it's about children misunderstood by parents who are significantly less intelligent than themselves... or is it, in part, about the ignorance which makes for a whole family's surprise when a teenage girl gets amphetamine withdrawal symptoms after cutting her dose of ADHD medication? No. No. Ok, I've got it this time. For real: It's a horrifying documentary about personality disorders in Kids and the psychotropic medication of them using drugs whose mechanism of action is often completely unknown, and whose long term effects have not been tested, (let alone on children's brains - still in their 'formative' years). Yes that's it! Sorry to taint this with my opinion. I have been biting my lip. I have no idea how Louis does it for the whole episode.

  • Why all parents of this kids look a little bit delusional to me

  • Bollocks to all this "good slap" business. What Hugh's missing out on is proper interaction with his parents. Play, socialisation, genuine (emphasis on genuine) exchanges of affection and bonding. Rather than just pumping him full of meds and reinforcing a negative or defiant self-image by framing his behaviour vis-a-vis his battery of make-believe disorders.

  • @TheChan641 yeah man. thats typical of an asperger's patient though. That's also why in the earlier part when louis says "got up your nose" his mom has to make sure he understands because some aspergers patients also have a hard time understanding anything non literal.

  • @TheLVB1827 I meant for the rest of them, but the fact is they all worked outside the confines of the norm as did Einstein.

  • @Andysbat for sure, i would have personally mentioned Igor Stravinsky. he was a friend of picasso's. ha, not trying to start a gigantic argument here, but seriously, if you are interested in original unique classical music, he's your guy.

    Morison and Kobain are good i guess in terms of modern music; for me though its always been about Floyd!

  • @Andysbat .......einstien was a physicist

  • @TheLVB1827 In terms of being very abstract individuals who produced very original and unique works of art dedicated to ones free expression? Then of course.

  • @mafiamitzy really? i mean, really, you would put kurt cobain and jim morrison on the same tier are einstien and picasso?

  • 01:42 MILF !

  • @310BPM Not at all true, a few percentage are very VERY clever in some fields but the majority are at or below average expectations.
