SHINING WITH ADHD EPISODE #154: Why Kids with ADHD Lie and What to Do About It The Childhood Collective 5/1/2024 SUMMARY Most of the time, we don’t need to see growing noses to know if our kids are telling us a lie.

Shining With ADHD by The Childhood Collective
SHINING WITH ADHD EPISODE #153: Understanding ADHD in Girls with Psychologist Stephen Hinshaw 4/24/2024 SUMMARY When people think of ADHD, they often picture the wiggly 6-year-old who struggles to keep his hands to himself and loves making his classmates laugh. We don’t often picture the little girl with a busy brain and loves to talk. For years, girls were overlooked in the research for ADHD. This resulted in a misunderstanding of their need for support as well as options for evidence-based treatment until adolescence. Getting these amazing girls the right treatment as early as...

SUMMARY
“Why did you do that?”
“What were you thinking?”
Sound familiar?
When our kids act impulsively, it is easy for us to get frustrated and confused. We might start asking our kids why they behaved the way they did.
The truth is, initially, they often don’t even know. Once everyone is regulated, it is easier to figure out what happened. As parents, we naturally want our kids with ADHD to slow down and consider their actions, but it's a challenge. It can be heartbreaking to see impulsive behavior negatively impact their social life or lead to consequences. That's why today, we’re sharing strategies to help them develop through these situations.
