    I think our proboem is that the ADHD child is so slow to do the non preffered tasks that it affects the whole routine. Eg. They need to put on their clothes before school but they avoid starting and if you dont rescue them, the whole family is late. Or they need to go to the toilet/brush their teeth before bed, and if you dont eventually jump in, they wont get to bed on time which will lead to a lack of sleep and affect the next morning :( what do you suggest doing to promote independence when a situation has a time limit?

    Hi, how can a parent with ADHD and Autism help to regulate their child also with ADHD and Autism? Do you help with that too? Do you help parents from the UK too? Because all the information that you share on short videos is a gift from the Universe for me. I am struggling to find ways with my 8-year-old son with ADHD & Autism. We triggered each other but I am learning to sometimes hold my emotions and try to find the solution for the moment, but it's a drainage process😢

    Im trying to find new ways to help my younger brother as he is getting into trouble a lot at school and at home there are a lot of arguments with our dad. My dad tries his absolute best to make sure my brother learns from his bad behaviour but nothing ever really changes and he continues doing bad things when he has been told not to. I think my dad could try the cleaning up technique and make sure my brother does something positive to counter the negative thing that has happened e.g. yelling at a teacher, maybe sending them an email or making a card for them to show he is sorry. But t’s difficult to get him to want to take accountability as he is 13 and for some reason he just keeps doing the same things over and over. We don’t know if it is his ADHD or just his hormones as he is just turned a teenager but it is getting very difficult for my dad to parent him as he is very rebellious and continues doing the same wrong things all the time. Keeps arguing with him. Always needs to be right and have the last word. Never takes no for an answer and even when there’s a reason, he will keep on pushing and says he doesn’t understand. I think it might be better if me and my dad (as i care for my brother too) look for different methods accountability and teaching, because the ones we have at the moment are clearly not working, and instead of blaming my brother, maybe we should try a different technique. Any advice would be great, thank you.

    In the age of social media, “affirming” me has come to mean “making me feel good about myself,” even if that means lying to me. It’s sad that consummate professionals can be told they’re not affirming of their expertise area because someone wanted a simple or easy solution and they were told that it wasn’t a real option.

    This is something I fear becoming an Issue. She is my bonus kiddo. But is the youngest. I up until recently had instructed my two kids 11 &15 that if she is violent towards them to not reciprocate. But come and let adults know so it can be taken care of. Until I realized that she does not care what her repercussions are. And continues to throw things at them and hit them. I know it's Alot on my older two who have NEVER laid a hand on each other in Anger. So I'm curious to see what the right way to handle this situation is. 😊

    Have you done any videos on how to parent multiple kids in a household and only one has ADHD? Do we use the same ADHD parenting techniques on all the kids? If not, what happens when the child with ADHD is exhibiting a behavior you would normally address and all the kids are there (big one for me is at the dinner table)?

    WOW! Thank you for bringing this into light. Im a (female)speech and language pathologist that works with mainly boys at my school. I’ve been saying this for years but admittedly, we dont get training in social skills as it pertains to boys. You’re absolutely right that we need to make conversation natural. Otherwise, what’s the point of intervening if we aren’t making things better. I actually started watching this channel to find ways to help my son and I am constantly blown away by your content. Keep up the great work!

  • @ADHDDude

    Because we know that people with ADHD can struggle with perspective-taking, it's a social executive function skill. I have many videos and webinars about this. I don't believe in labeling kids as narcissists, it denotes a character flaw in someone who is not fully developed.

    Being an ADHD ODD kid, learning takes longer & more attempts. There was nothing worse than trying to navigate a challange agian & failing - only to be shamed & arbitrarily disciplined too. It furthered my ODD because it erroded my trust in authority/teaching figures plus it just created more anxiety & depression. It was my first experience with the 'ADHD Tax'. I did need consequence, but they needed to be applicable to my learning needs, more introspective & celebrate what I did right. Many lessons were muddied because I was told it was wrong, not just part of it was, then I gave up. After all, if I fail either way, at least failing when I didnt try wouldn't hurt as much. Being carful not to fall into false dichotomy of only right or wrong with a balance of fare punishment was how I learned best. Finally found adults, teachers, leaders & management that did this with me has allowed me to thrive. Granted succeeding in life to spite people was a real motivator. ODD reverse uno card 😂

    I just found this podcast today. This series has been extremely validating. I have bachelor's in social work & have ADHD myself. I had an ADHD coach as an adult for three years and it made an enormous difference for me. However, I am not able to provide that for my children now because of cost. To the best of my knowledge, my insurance would not pay for ADHD coaching, which is the number one thing I want for my kids to help them with ADHD. I have 5 kids with ADHD and we all need ADHD coaching! But without insurance coverage, I don't know how that could ever happen. Please share information with me if the situation is different.

    I think that completely depends on the child and if the child is receptive to learning from the parent. I have met many kids with ADHD who deteroriate when their parents start homeschooling them, to the point they become physically aggressive. Others do fine with it. It's not something I would personally recommend to most families.

    wow I agree with you. I watched 2 videos and you are right. It should be a parent training and not the child. I'm almost at my wits end with my son been doing a lot of therapy. This year we stop because we have not seen major improvements. Because the therapist usually will teach you a thing or 2 only. Its so frustrating. - btw I'm from the Philippines.

    You always overestimate what you can do in a day and underestimate what you can do in a year! I see 30+ on there. As a 45 year old with ADHD, I rely heavily on calendars, planners and lists. I would say that I block out important events well in advance. However, weekly and daily, I have to set my intentions and goals to stay on track. I do adjust when I get sidetracked. If I write it down, it has a chance of getting done at some point. As a kid in school, it wasn’t until high school and college that I really got the hang of planning like this. I wish I’d had Ryan’s program back then! My daughter is 20, and she can’t even answer a few days in advance for plans. She calls or shows up randomly. Her work and music class are scheduled every week. Her dad is also spontaneous. It is what it is. We do our best!
