I think the author may be mentally ill. By the way, Fleurdelily, is that Monet on your avatar? I'm a big fan of Monet! :D

:D You are a person of extremely outstanding taste! I love Monet! Monet always puts me in a good mood. He always captured the right combination of color and light. Monet is one of my all time favorites. Shame he's not American. :mrgreen:

He also doesn't even know what ODD is. I have known someone with ODD, my ex aspie mate, and it is a real thing and I have seen kids with it on TV such as DR. Phil and it's not a great thing to have.

I would take any article on Yahoo with a pinch of salt.
