[quote=Anonymous]All human beings have strengths and all human beings have weaknesses. To lead a happy and fulfilling life, a person needs to find a career that values their strengths and interests. ADHD runs rampant in my family and, not surprisingly 4 of my 5 kids have it too. The boys have really struggled in school and make mostly B and C grades in middle school and high school. The girls have found it easier to succeed at school. We have tried to help them learn organizational and executive function skills. It is often very frustrating for us. We also have tried to support what they are interested in - soccer, cooking, filmmaking, sewing, sailing, camping etc.. and it has been wonderful to see them find their own interests and passions that are different from ours and each other’s! Of course we worry about their futures but we do believe that if they develop passions they will find a path to a good life. [/quote]
