Thing is - he either will live up to it or he won't. It really is that simple. To me, the issue isn't the label, its what the OP chooses to do with the information that matters. Is this a deal-breaker? Or a starting point to some kind of understanding and acceptance to his limitations?
Ok, perhaps I misread, I was sensing an inability to change diagnosis for him from some people on the thread...we can't be his higher power either, or condemn him, although criticism of his behaviors is all very understandable.
