Summary

This week Dr. Sarah and Stacy answer a listener question Listener's Question: Long time podcast listener - yes, I’ve stuck with you since the early days and love how your podcast has evolved over the years. I’m a mom of 3 boys all with varying degrees of ADHD. My husband has more than a dusting himself but is not formally diagnosed. Stacy, I loved your description of living in a house of 80%ers - it made me giggle because it totally resonated. I’d love to hear more about how you look after you, maintain some semblance of normal family life, deal with ADHD behaviors in public and live in a house that’s not a tip when you’re surrounded by ADHD. In short, how do you not lose your mind with the challenging aspects? Knowing that the men in my life didn’t choose this just doesn’t cut it anymore. Many thanks, Brooke.

0:27.0	As our regular listeners can tell it is opposite day and I just
0:36.7	started the podcast and I hope not a completely awkward and
0:40.4	unprofessional manner because that's probably like the third one I've ever
0:43.6	started like that. This week we're going to be talking about my experience
0:51.0	specifically with children with ADHD and how we've been handling quarantine and
0:59.6	virtual schooling and life in general. I know this has been a question a lot of you have
1:05.0	asked especially as we get ready for school. I've all now that I say that I'm
1:10.6	like serious kids are probably in school because it's like the beginning of
1:14.1	August but not quite they actually delayed they delayed our start date by two
1:19.5	weeks so that all of the teachers could get training on all of the virtual platforms that they're going to be using.
1:26.0	So they actually start by the time this podcast goes live, I guess it's about a week and a half.
1:31.0	But yes, we are certainly in the ramp up to school in our in our home
1:36.0	And I know even those here in Virginia we were supposed to start at the end of August and now we're starting like you two weeks
1:43.6	later the beginning of September and I know my personal friends are looking at
1:50.0	okay how do I set my children up for success and set myself up for success more so
1:57.6	than they were kind of the last quarter of last year because that we knew that that
