Do you ever feel like your relationship with your child or teen revolves around their ADHD - and not who they are as a person? That all your time is spent talking about school and chores and what’s NOT done? ADHD can sometimes obscure your child’s true self and prevent joyful connections.
Here, learn how and why the three core symptoms of ADHD - dysregulated attention/focus, impulsivity, and hyperactivity - get in the way of building a relationship with your child. For each of the three core facets of ADHD, learn how to identify when and how symptoms are affecting the parent-child relationship - and how to overcome those challenges with relationship-building strategies.
With Dr. Norrine Russell, learn how to connect with your child through fun board games, conversation starters, and other relationship-building ideas.
