Neurodivergent Characters

Discussion

Is it just me or does anyone else hate it when characters who are neurodivergent just get everything handed to them and everyone is just automatically very tolerant and understanding of their differences? I know fiction is a fantasy and people want to see good things happen and for characters to get their happy endings and what not, but I need it to be earned. I want to see them work and fight for it. I want to see them have consequences and have to learn how to cope.
