ResponseABLE Parenting

In this episode I share the findings from 4 studies that look at the physical aggression of ADHD children. I connect the dots from these studies to what is likely happening in your home with your ADHD child when they are frustrated, have been told no, or are being asked to transition. 
The data suggests that 78.9% of the people who will listen to this podcast have experienced some form of child to parent violence during a moment of dysregulation. That means you are most certainly not alone. 
My hope in this episode is to share a bigger picture about what is happening for your child as well as proven strategies that will support YOU in the moment as well as strategies that will begin to develop the lagging skills so these moments are no longer common occurrences in your home.

Over the past week so many parents shared with me that managing their child's mood was like walking on eggshells. They were constantly scanning for things that would trigger their child or set them off. And they'd try to avoid it but all the strategies used seemed to intensify the moment or backfire completely. 
In this week's episode I talk about that anticipatory anxiety and how our nervous system's survival strategy is failing us. And I give you steps on how to rebuild that predictability so both you and your child come to these triggering moments in a different way. I give you an example from my own home around the Chrome Book (something my son wants more of and I want less of) and how we were able to rebuild this high conflict moment into something that is collaborative and calm.

In this episode I share this duel reality so many parents with ADHD kids experience. The hope of something new "working" and the sadness that comes almost instantaneously as we think of all the things we've tried that haven't worked. I share some stories that I witnessed this week and how they've touched me and made it so crystal clear why I'm on this mission to support parents of ADHD kids.

I'm no stranger to a lecture. In fact, that's all my body knows as a solution for high conflict. That's all my dad did and I'm drawn to that as the solution to the hard moments with my ADHD kid. 
In this episode I share some of the underlying reasons we reach for lectures and punishments in hard patterns. And how these choices fuel the conflict even more. 
I share a few steps you can take right now to start moving the needle in the direction of the desired behavior.

This episode is for you if your ADHDer is prone to conflict. If your child appears to seek out a sibling, escalates with you quickly after hearing an answer they don't like, has to do a non-preferred task that is SO BORING!!
I break down a few bits of science that is really helpful to understand WHY their brain is doing what it's doing. And once we know this, what can WE do as the parent to stop feeding the conflict and start building louder more positive options in the desired behavior pattern we want to see.
