AIBU to question sunflower lanyards for adults at airports?

Why do adults need sunflower lanyards at airports?
My SIL wears one as she says she can't cope..... when I asked her how she coped pre lanyards, she just said she did.

So if she coped then, why can't she cope now?

What does she think will happen at the airport? Surely adults can manage their own behaviour/actions and if they can't they shouldn't be travelling.

What does an adult wearing one, expect to happen at an airport?

It allows staff to know how to help if you’re visibly struggling. Wait till you find out that some of us fill in hidden disabilities forms before hand so we can get help if needed on the plane!
