[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, there are coaches who work with kids on job searches if you have the $. This could be good executive function training for your kid.[/quote] Genuine question: what is the difference between hiring a coach to work with your child vs. you as the parent try to help guide and support them? I have excellent executive function and if my child does not, what would be wrong with my working to advise and guide my child just as a coach would?[/quote] Good question. Both me and my husband have strong executive function skills too but it’s been GREAT being able to be “mom and dad” and let the coach be “the coach”. My son is far more receptive if instructions come from the coach instead of us. A coach is also trained in adapting strategies to fit each person. That’s just my 2cents and view from our experience. The EF coach my son’s been using has been amazing! [/quote]
