[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a ten year old who’s similar. It’s hard. I have found that the more work I do on myself, [b]the more I learn about ADHD in kids, the more I learn about RSD, PDA, etc., the better it gets. [/b]It’s nothing my kid does, it’s about building a world for them that doesn’t cause them to be in burnout all the time. Your kid does great at school where the stress and being told what to do and holding it in all day causes her to have nothing left at home. I don’t have a silver bullet, we are still struggling, but understanding what’s going on lightens the psychological load on the whole family. My spouse isn’t that great at approaching the child with curiosity and empathy and that harms the family and their relationship with the kid, [b]but me working very hard at it has helped significantly.[/b][/quote]It’s not just hard work though. It’s education on the actual diagnosis which everyone else on this thread is discouraging. [/quote]
