Summary

October is ADHD awareness month and I invited Lori Long and Katie Severson founders of The Childhood Collective an online resource to help parents of children with ADHD. Whether you or your child has ADHD or not; we discuss some very important parenting strategies that you may find useful even if your child does not have ADHD. We discuss: What to remember about the ADHD brain and how to better approach your child with ADHD Why some parenting discipline strategies like gentle parenting may not work with children with ADHD and what they may need instead How to approach ADHD parenting with prevention versus consequences To connect with Dr. Mallory Yee and Dr. Lori Long follow them on Instagram @thechildhoodcollective, check out all their resources at https://www.thechildhoodcollective.com/ and download their free guide: 6 Keys to Parenting a Happy and Independent Child with ADHD.
