So my brother says that his daughter/my niece’s new middle school counselor wants her to set a goal to go completely without fidgets this upcoming school year. This concerns us because my brother and I developed dermatillomania in our early adolescence in the 2000s in part from trying to go without fidgeting in class and are worried that history may repeat itself. The three of us have ADHD and she more than likely has anxiety disorders lurking in her DNA from both sides of her family. Rather than trying to force her to not fidget at all I was wondering what fidgets do y’all find the least distracting?

I know that it’s a very long shot but I’m feeling nostalgic. I do see that some stores still make tenders and potato wedges so I figured it was worth asking.

It sounded like a bomb! Hope everyone is alright!

For the past few years I’ve been having more and more people tailgate me and not utilize the sections of road where the center line is broken or act like I’m some kind of maniac when I utilize those sections myself. I don’t mind pulling over to the shoulder for faster traffic but this often happens in areas where the shoulder doesn’t exist or is less than two feet wide so it’s really frustrating that these drivers aren’t just overtaking me when it’s allowed and safe.
