    I've said this many times before, but 1 in 50 kids diagnosed as autistic in this country.
    1 in 10,000 in 1970s.

    This is the subject that is need of the biggest investigation if there was actually a Prime Time in this country.

    What would they be investigating exactly? “Medical science refines ability to diagnose children with autism?” :rolleyes:

    Biden Harris sticker, ffs.

    Would you prefer it if he was a trumpanzee?


  • Registered Users Posts: 93 ✭✭Karlos77


    It shouldn’t be up to the women to get their men to “help.” We live in a Patriarchal society where the burden of domestic work is automatically placed on women, even the distribution of duties. In a truly equal relationship it shouldn’t be up to the woman to assign chores for the husband to do, he should have the foreknowledge to step in himself.
    Sorry to add if the husband is not helping equally with the kids etc then kick him out and get a new partner and vice verca otherwise partners who stay with people who dont help out are fools

    So saying someone might be autistic is a disgraceful thing to say? Nice ableism you're showing. BTW a lot of autistic people also have autistic relatives

    I presume a guest having a Biden/Harris sticker in their home office is an indication of Tubridy’s much criticised “obsession” with American politics? Because I haven’t seen any other evidence of it so far.

    Every Friday nowadays there seems to be a big long ad for a charity.

    Its boring at this stage.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Well, unfortunately, given the way that the graph is going, it's not something that society is going to ignore or pass off as "over diagnosis" for much longer. But you are entitled to your right to live in denial. That is one of the few rights that we have left.

    Great guy. You can clearly see how both brothers are great networkers.

    Very enjoyable show tonight. Good guests. Would have been nice to have heard a little bit more from Enda, especially about what he feels his legacy might be. Modern historians say he will be looked upon as one of the finest taoisigh we have had.

    It's a shame he isn't interested in becoming President. He'd be a natural at it. Would have been a great advocate for the Irish language as well.

    Very enjoyable stuff. Ryan has a relaxed manner about him with all of the guests. One of the things I have always enjoyed about the Late Late was swinging from the frivolous to the serious. Very much a reflection of the tragedies and joys of life.

    This father seems very genuine, I feel for him. Must be very difficult for him and the poor kid

    Sort of makes Sarah McInerney's perceived difficulties pale in to insignificance.

    Agreed very genuine man ...

    Isn't there a forum for this boring politics crap.

    Don’t think it reaches the standard for the regular “Politics” forum but it’s got just the right level of derangement and, excess, anger that it would do well in the “Current Affairs” forum.

    Anyways, moving on from the clown college (Enda fan club) that infiltrated the thread tonight, I see Ryan poaching guests from the canteen as per usual?? A dreadful lineup. Dunbar was probably the most famous of all the guests. a fine actor, but he talked absolute nonsense. Switched off halfway but I see some rugby writer and Sarah Mcinerney were roped in.

    Enda fan club who infiltrated the thread. In other words I have privilege over newer posters:rolleyes:

    'Dreadful lineup' and 'some rugby writer':rolleyes:

    You're one happy camper! Keep trying to have the last word too.

    You're one naïve little man. You think this is the only country in the world with problems. You don't think people will feather their own nests in countries worldwide.

    I have every bit as much right to post here as you. No fan boys, just realists.

    Have a listen to this. You might learn something.

    Someone a bit more famous that could talk about upcoming projects instead of insidious cronies from RTE spouting tedious waffle. Is it that much to ask for considering the host is being paid 500k a year by a broke tax-payer funded station??

    Maybe you'd go on the show yourself and tell us how your going to revolutionise life in Ireland?

    No politics and political parties was your first offering.

    What comes after that?

    More strawman arguments. So everyone with a political opinion has to justify it by entering the political arena???? :rolleyes: Look your obviously a good friend of Enda Kenny or something because your over zealousness in protecting him is strange to say the least

    Where did I say 'there should be no politics' exactly????? If you had read my posts like anyone with anything resembling intelligence, you would have noted that I said I was disillusioned with politics in this country and I fully explained why, but of course, its easy to be lazy and take things out of context, when you are lacking the intellect to have a proper debate. Your only counterargument is that we should be glad we arent still in mud huts.

    GO TO BED for yourself and get a much-needed rest and leave the adults to boards in future. Good little man :)

    You telling me to go to bed! Leave it so you're miserable. Obvious blowhard. Anyone with a bit of revolutionary guts wouldn't be on here since 2002 without getting a ban:D

    No fan of anyone. Just despise softness and people moaning with no cause. If someone is bereaved has mental or physical health problems etc fair enough. You haven't tuppence worth to add to an argument. You've said hut 20 times. No counter argument to our standing on UN Wealthy Nations and Living Standards, nothing..

    No doubt you'll report me (for nothing) in the morning because you're not strong enough to stand on your own two feet.

    Don't hurt yourself rolling off the couch

    What exactly does hut mean or is that more of the drink talking???? Incoherent nonsense.

    While I agree with this partly, there's definitely been an increase in Autism and ADHD children in the 15 years that I have taught primary.

    I'm not sure why, but while lack of diagnoses in decades gone by is true, there's definitely been an increase in actual cases.

    it's definitely worth investigating.

    Lads who wouldn't get out of the scratcher before 11 giving out about politicians. Armchair ministers.

    Ah yes, the old 'how dare you hate Fine Gael, you are all lazy bums' counter :rolleyes:

    Im not sure if this lazy, quite obnoxious generalization was aimed at me, but if it was, I'm sorry to disappoint you I actually do work. In fact, up to lately, I was working two jobs, but my short-term contract ended in one and the other goes from day-to-day. I don't know what tomorrow will bring.

    Is it dietary factors? or is it just that we had a lack of awareness all along???

    You're attempting to appear as intellectual but you're doing yourself no favours. My ilk?

    You're giving out about everything in the country, disillusioned. When you were presented with the counter argument that relative to other eras of history, we are indeed really lucky to live today, you resorted to rolleyes after rolleyes. You do know that a lot of our forefathers lived in mud walled cabins or huts? You have heard of pitch capping in 1798 I presume. Being born today is one reason to be happy.

    Next counter argument was how high we rate on living standard scales on UN tables. Nothing from you but abuse.

    Next argument, political cronyism and misappropriation of funds etc is not unique to Ireland. No coherent reply forthcoming from you.

    All I find is complete negativity. You do realise you'll have problems when you/if you emigrate? They'll be slightly different in nature but they'll be there.

    Next argument you had no reply to was Democracy is the best, if flawed, form of government available. Our elected representatives represent us as a people whether we like it or not.

    Of course one questions politicians but your bitterness towards everyone was seeping out. I hope you don't judge yourself by the standards you set for everyone else.

    A few things to clear up. I don't drink. I was concerned you were depressed initially. Don't question my intellect, it has taken me to where I want to go in life, more importantly with integrity and honesty.

    You just had a problem with being challenged tonight and started petty talk of infiltration etc.

    Good luck. I try surround myself with positive people. Life's too short.
