Overview

"How to be the parent your ADHD child needs - and to be less frustrated and calmer in the process. Parenting is hard work. Throw in something like ADHD, and it can seem impossible. Do you believe you are a bad parent because you don't discipline enough? Or maybe you are too tough on your child? Do you often feel stressed, frustrated, disrespected, and just plain tired? Don't worry: you're not alone. Nearly 6.2 million children in the United States have been diagnosed with ADHD - you share the faith of all those parents. Due to a different wiring of a brain activity that affects attention and self-control, children with ADHD are oftentimes impulsive, disorganized, and energetic. When you think about the difficulties you face in parenting an ADHD child, you should also think about the difficulties they face navigating a world that wasn't created with them in mind. Parenting ADHD children takes a special skill set and requires us to see the world through their lenses - traditional parenting methods might as well be a different language to the brains of our ADHD children. But it doesn't mean children with ADHD can't be successful. Just look at Michael Phelps, Justin Timberlake, Simone Biles, Jim Carrey, Howie Mandel... the list goes on and on.
