[quote=Anonymous]I think overly focusing on the SN kid doesn’t always help them. I have three kids with ADHD, and it means I have to be careful about what therapies I say yes to. There is a lot of “but how helpful would this really be?” And I think that’s good. If I had only one kid with ADHD, that kid and their disorder would run the family’s life. And that’s not the message I want to send my kids. My message is: you are loved and important, but you are not the center of everything. You have ADHD so some things are harder for you than others, and I expect you to excel with reasonable accommodations. Don’t blame your ADHD for stuff without also giving me an (ADHD-friendly) plan for what you will do better next time. [/quote]
