It’s okay to pat yourself on the back sometimes, but you have 0 idea about me/my kid, if she’s neurotypical or neurodivergent.

So I suggest to keep unasked parental advices or expectations how other kids should behave to yourself.

Forget it. Not gonna happen, on a story about kid's development, in a thread about lack of impulse control.

Sure, there could be physiological reasons for a given child to have a lack of impulse control, but in practice most of a child's characteristics are going to be from the environment.
