About this listen

In a world that just won’t make a lot of sense for them, you are your ADHD child’s lifeline. Make sure you’re equipped to take on this difficult yet fulfilling challenge.

Have you heard the saying: The real task of a parent is to work themselves out of a job? When your kids don’t need you, that’s when you know you are parenting well.

You want your children to grow strong, healthy, and resilient, and become competent, happy, and fulfilled in their lives. You know you won’t always be around to be their safety net, so they need to become competent and effective in their own right, at some point.

But adding ADHD into the mix means we need to bring a whole different level of thinking to our parenting strategies.

It’s not just about managing what the rest of the world sees as naughty or bad behavior. It’s not just about getting them to sit still, be quiet, and obey. That kind of thinking went out with the Titanic!

You can transform your child’s life experience, and your relationship with them, from one of struggle to one of meaningful joy and ease.

Changing your view of your ADHD child from that of a problem to be solved, to an exciting and fascinating puzzle to unlock is the first step, and this guide will show you the rest.

In this practical and realistic book, you will discover:

  • What it is like inside an ADHD mind, and how you can step inside their world and understand them a whole lot better
  • Powerful parenting strategies that help unlock your child’s superpowers and strengths, building them up rather than breaking them down
  • What to do about the difficult aspects of raising an ADHD child, such as meltdowns, defiance, hyperactivity, and lack of focus
  • Top tips and tricks to help your child work with their ADHD rather than struggle against it—and make studying, focusing, and socializing so much easier for everyone
  • How to speak so your ADHD child hears you

This is a fantastic resource for parents. It helps you understand what it’s like for kids with ADHD and teaches you how to support them better. It gives helpful tips on parenting strategies that focus on strengths instead of just dealing with the tough parts. It addresses handling meltdowns and lack of focus in a practical way. I like how it shows parents ways to help their kids work with their ADHD instead of fighting against it. Moreover, it explains how to communicate better with your ADHD child. I appreciate the author for such an amazing work. Highly recommended!

The book's practical tips were game-changers. I learned about creating routines, using positive reinforcement, and setting realistic expectations. I discovered the magic of fidget toys and the power of taking breaks. Most importantly, I learned to see my child's strengths, his creativity, his boundless enthusiasm. Great Book!

Extremely Helpful!!

I've been reading lots of books on ADHD for a few reasons. One is that I think I may have it myself but also I'm a school teacher and the ADHD is in my experience becoming more prevalent year on year, and normal teaching books don't dedicate themselves to the topic. The biggest barrier for myself is being able do lessons that cater to ADHDs needs and still have a positive environment where learning happens. Out of all the recommendations this book offers I so far have had the most success with movement in the classroom and breaking up the lesson in lots of manageable chunks. Will have to re-read and try new things out but so far so good!

Great for teaching too
