A truly great internet thread . Newer social media could never facilitate the sheer depths of depravity which this thread has reached . Take a bow folks .
Lying over here at dawn catching up in this. 
Was there a full moon yesterday?
Itâs pure abuse by a corporation but noone died.
I donât doubt Kev does savage work with young people in an area thatâs badly neglected these days.
As for the Irish lads that somehow make a connection to some team in that God forsaken hole across the Giants causeway 
One question @caoimhaoin, if you do happen to come across troubled young fellas what sort of support network is there to tap into?

Nice one KP. The sunshine policy with Kev to make him look more like an oddball.clever
Youâre not a parent @bandage so you unfortunately see the term âchild abuseâ as having sexual connotations only. Which is frankly absurd and shows your lack of empathy to children.
Itâs fitting that you are a Glasgow Celtic diehard. God help your future children you bastard.

This is the Internet. Abuse. Lies. Baseless allegations. Innuendo. Itâs been years since I enjoyed a thread so much

This was bound to happen somewhere, the All Irelands are done and dusted, the BPL is boring, Rugby Football is dead and lads are having kids and growing more and more sleep deprived.
It was just a matter of the right ingredients coming together in the right mixer.
It had reaffirmed my belief in the utter depravity of the Internet .
@caoimhaoin brought up the sexual connotations and you liked the post if I recall correctly (about 40 or 50 into the thread). If you now agree with me that it was frankly absurd to equate that to a 10-minute kickaround then thatâs fine. I was responding to that specific aspect, you see. Feel free to unlike his post and like my response though if as it now seems you agree with my position. 
Nobody is qualified to do a clinical diagnosis as Nature deficit disorder is not a medical condition
Its usually parents with
- who have kids that are good at sport and want to protect them from injury/bring them to next level
- Kids and/or parents (i have a dad and 2 sons who come 3 morn p/week for 30 mins) who have just lived the typical sedentary lifestyle.
- kids who are just mad to lift weights (that culture is getting younger and younger) and their parents just want them eased into it and taught it all correctly
- kids with confidence or activity issues. These aee often the âADHDâ types. These are the types being discussed largely.
As alot of the recent research suggests all that most of these lads need is activity. School does not suit them. They are just being labeled bexause they canât sit still or interact on a ânormalâ level. They are singled out early and they carry it around. Teachers donât know how to or have the time to deal with their âneedsâ. Thing is, this is my theory for alot (not all) of these kids and psychologists and parents agree, is this type of kid in the past played in the morning, olayed at lunch and went home after school and was out and about immediately. Thats all gone. Kids are not allowed run at lunch time in schools now ffs. Some of these lads i meet are ridiculously smart. One guy in particular just finds school too boring and easy. He is a real hard case for his mother who was originally coming to a class of mine. He breaks her heart. The gym works for him. He loves strength training, looks forward to it and its now a carrot his mother has over him as he is very very difficult.
So i think while there may be cases and conditions with deeper neurological issues possible brought on by parents lifestyle etc, alot of it is purely lack of activity. Despite what alf et al try to twist, i donât diagnose anything, i offer my opinion and other avenues based on experience. Thats neither dangerous nor illegal. What most parents tell you is all the doctors want to give them is supressing drugs. âLazy cuntsâ as they were described to me lately. Not all GPâs like that though, know if 2 who share a practice in my own parish who are pushing activity big time and wonât go near prescribing drugs unless its virtually a danger to someone not too. Anything inheard about neurologists is they have never given an answer.
Some parents donât believe these conditions really exist at all. They say it helps to get the kid out of class to do other activities though by getting that label. They often say they were like that themselves or their brother or father were like that.

I brought up that Celtic have a history of ignoring child abuse. This was child abuse last week. In the past it was more sinister and damaging.

No its not. Its in basic language not spending enough time outside in nature and playing and exploring.
It is a term/condition used by Child Psychologists i know.

No, this is what you said. It was a very offensive comment for different reasons and you really should have the decency and maturity to apologise for it.

I clearly seperared them.
And i stand by it. Celtic obviously donât give a fuck about their players and lack mature and educated coaches.
Its a business and all that, but in any business your employees are the most important factor. Celtic should hang their head in shame.

It says kids do not play enough these days.
But we donât need a study for that now do we?
We do
Your denial is pitiable. Iâll quote again to give you a hand.
^ Here you introduce for the first time this âNDDâ concept. You fail to mention its lack of recognition and the fact it has no grounding clinically.
^After @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy laughed at your post, you ask him if he works with kids and if he believed it existed. Curious why you would ask him if he thought it existed, when Psychology doesnât recognise it. Also contradicts what you are saying in now, that it is a mere term. This is where it gets interesting though, asking if he works with kids, as if that would be evidence of anything.
^Hereâs you professing belief in a disorder that has never been recognised by any authority, no clinical evidence of its existence.[quote=âcaoimhaoin, post:130, topic:23164â]
I was pressing him to see if he worked with kids and could he identify it.
[/quote]
People without the professional and clinical ability to identify psychological conditions shouldnât be attempting to do so with children left in their supervision for an unrelated activity.
^This is what you seem to be contesting. You clearly state that you think you have the professional ability to identify psychological conditions. Its not contestable. Its what you said. Thinking you can do this is outrageous when you have no qualification in psychology. Considering you are carrying on with this behaviour, your willingness to hook on to a buzzword and profess its existence is even scarier still.
Now in light of all that, are you going to claim that you never said you were professionally qualified to identify psychological conditions in children?
