[quote=Anonymous]I can't get the WP link to open because I've used my free articles for this month, but I generally don't think much of the WP "On parenting" blog. The advice is always really facile. I disagree with you that OP's post suggests a bare minimum knowledge of ADHD. I posted earlier, as a person with ADHD and a mom of children with ADHD. It's understandable that a disorder may make things more difficult for you than for others, but it's unacceptable to blame others. And taking that approach will only make you unpopular and unsuccessful. Like everything else with ADHD, the child needs appropriate guidance and scaffolding to learn the skill of accepting responsibility, and also to learn the skills necessary to avoid losing the phone or whatever else the problem is.[/quote]
