[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]do not tell your child they are 'annoying' unless it's extreme eg ridiculous behavior. To be told you are annoying constantly will chip away at self esteem and cause mental health issues later. Break down what is annoying about it. If they are talking OVER someone, you can give guidance eg 'i think your brother was talking. just make sure, if you can, to wait if you can till the other person is finished to make your point'. [/quote] This is way too many words and not direct enough to have an impact. "I think" is untrue and u helpful. "If you can" ditto. This wont get you anywhere with an adhd kid. "Your brother is talking, you need to wait your turn" is the correct way to phrase.[/quote]
