[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 398625, member: 84"] Awful but it doesn't really surprise me. I know too many kids that would do it just for the attention they believe it might get them alone..........so not that hard to believe it for them wanting to be like a celebrity. Some also fake it as a means to get away with certain behaviors both at school and at home believing if they have a disorder how could parents/school punish them for those behaviors. Although I still believe it is a minority, and probably a small one as the stigma linked to mental illness is still quite strong in society, and especially among school aged kids. [/QUOTE]
