Did you know that by age twelve, a child with ADHD may receive roughly 20,000 more negative or corrective comments than their neurotypical peers? On this episode, Mandy gets brutally honest about how easily parents fall into the trap of overcorrecting kids with ADHD. It is time to get correct about correcting, as Mandy dissects the exact moments where her own anxiety led to unnecessary nagging. So tune in and get the blueprint on how to identify when you are overcorrecting, how to separate an ADHD trait from intentional rudeness, and finally, how to replace constant verbal nagging with visual prompts and positive reinforcement.
