Just saying because nearly every person I know who has ADHD and/or Autism (including myself) seems to care less about people knowing they’re into “childish” things.

Also the idea that this is a new phenomenon because Millenials and older gen Z are “soft” or stunted in some way.

I mean, boomers have model trains and and cars. So did their parents. My grandma used to knit herself plushies. This isn’t new. You don’t suddenly stop having your old likes because you reach a certain age.

    The way to enjoy childish things is to have children and then enjoy it with them. See, I’m not playing with model trains…it’s for my son! He loves them! (Because he loves his dad and wants to please him.) Otherwise you give off strong Micheal Jackson vibes. I’m not saying it’s fair, I’m saying it’s what happens.
