165: Does your ADHD child lash out physically?
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.

164: Your anticipation of the fight with your ADHD kid, is likely causing the exact fight you don't want!
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. 🎉STOP YELLING!

I share how the moment unfolded, what was going on for him and me during the argument, and how I supported us both through the fire. This episode is truly about frustration tolerance.

159: Does your ADHD kid tell you what they're doing INSTEAD of doing what you just asked!?!?!
This was a HUGE ah ha moment for me and my ADHD son this summer. We've been in this pattern for as long as he's been able to talk. I ask him to do something, he tells me what he's doing instead. This has led to us BOTH being very reactive and triggered and it's been one pattern I haven't been able to crack. UNTIL NOW! In this episode I break down the exact moment we figured it out, how things have changed since, and exactly how we are practicing it so we can lower the defensive walls and start communicating more respectfully! 🎉STOP YELLING!
