The idea of Calvin having ADHD has been discussed to death, but really, as someone with severe ADHD, I get it. I feel like he absolutely does.

And you know what? After all the punishment and un-fun of the evening when consequences caught up… next time the possibility of trouble rears its head (under the guise of "fun"), you know already he'll leap in with both feet without further thought.

Story of my damn life. lol

    This also happens after the bully sequence, he might be acting on the frustration from the week at school. Not sure if Waterson planned that far ahead, but I know some of his threads went together.

    I know when I got bullied at school I tended to take it out on my siblings later at home. It’s a big regret from childhood, but my brothers forgave me (and got even plenty too over the years).
