I was "easily distracted" and "underperformed" and "could do better" at school. Always the "weird" kid. Only diagnosed when I was an adult because "autism" just wasn't really a thing*. This was 40+ years ago. The general treatment approach was getting The Belt haha or sent to my room, or sent to my gran's, or sent "out to play".

*edit: when I was a kid
