How to Talk to your Child about ADHD while reducing stigma and opening possibilities

Talking to kids about their ADHD in a positive and empowering way is essential for creating a successful narrative that will help them thrive as they get older.

Dr. Liz Angoff has developed a framework for helping parents and kids work through this conversation by emphasizing positive language, highlighting strengths, and finding solutions. Metaphors can effectively explain ADHD to children and cultivating a growth mindset within these conversations is key.

Additionally, she has some awesome free resources that can help you plan these difficult conversations with your kiddos. All of these strategies are valuable in helping kids feel visible and understood and helping parents create a safe space for their children to navigate their learning differences.
