Pathological demand avoidance is one of the less well-known patterns that can appear in children with ADHD, and one of the more exhausting for families to navigate. If your child resists almost every request -- not just the hard ones, but routine ones too -- and the usual behavioral strategies don't seem to work at all, our post on PDA and ADHD is worth reading.

Raising a child or teen with ADHD can have its own unique challenges, and when you’re a parent of one of these children, it’s not uncommon to find that you’re not necessarily equipped with the knowledge and education needed to understand and support them. For example, we know that children wit...

People with ADHD often need a movie on to fold laundry, music playing to clean, or a podcast running to get through any monotonous task. This is not distraction. It is the brain seeking just enough stimulation to stay engaged with something it otherwise cannot sustain attention on. Our post explains the neuroscience behind why this works and why it is a legitimate strategy, not a bad habit.

If you have ADHD, you’ve probably experienced this: there’s a basket of clean laundry sitting in your room. It’s been there for days, maybe weeks. You know you need to fold it. You’ve walked past it dozens of times. You’ve told yourself “I’ll fold it later” so many times that the phr...

School advocacy for a child with ADHD is something many parents know they need but don't know how to approach. ADHD Training Center can help -- working with you and your child's school to make sure the right accommodations are in place and that your child is being seen as more than their challenges.

Our program at the ADHD Training Center is dedicated to empowering students with ADHD and executive function disorders for academic success

Not all online ADHD coaching programs are the same. The range of what's available stretches from highly structured, professionally led programs to one-size-fits-all video courses with minimal live interaction. If you're evaluating options for your child, our post on what to actually look for in an online program helps you ask the right questions.

Finding support for a child with ADHD has never been easier in terms of options — and never harder in terms of knowing which options are actually worth pursuing. Online ADHD coaching programs have expanded significantly, and the range of what’s available now stretches from highly structured, pro...

Getting diagnosed with ADHD as an adult is its own kind of turning point. The years of struggling, the self-criticism, the coping strategies that worked until they didn't -- all of it starts to make sense in a new way. Our post on how adult ADHD is typically addressed and treated is a useful starting point for anyone trying to figure out what comes next after a diagnosis.

Last week, we talked a little more about ADHD and adulthood. Getting diagnosed with ADHD as an adult is its own kind of turning point. The years of struggling to keep up, the self-criticism, the coping strategies that worked until they didn’t — all of it starts to make sense in a new way. But [....

Two kids. Same diagnosis. Completely different presentations. One can't sit still, the other stares out the window all day. Both have ADHD.

Your child has ADHD. So does their classmate. But your child can’t sit still for more than five minutes, while the other kid sits quietly at their desk all day and just forgets to turn in homework. Your child blurts out answers and interrupts constantly. The other kid spaces out and seems like the...

If you have a teenager with ADHD who falls apart when plans change unexpectedly, it is not overdramatic and it is not about the specific change. It is about a nervous system that relies heavily on predictability to function. Our post on why teens with ADHD struggle so much with last-minute changes explains the mechanism and what actually helps.

You told your teenager you’d pick them up at 3pm. At 2:45, you text that you’re running 15 minutes late. They respond immediately with frustration, annoyance, or even anger that seems completely out of proportion to a minor schedule change. Or maybe you mentioned going out for pizza tonight, but...

Bullying in children with ADHD is not always intentional. Some of it happens accidentally -- through impulsivity, social skills deficits, or misreading cues -- in ways that still leave real damage. Understanding how this works is the first step toward helping your child navigate it.

Most parents think of bullying as something intentional and violent. They imagine a child who targets another child, one who picks on them repeatedly, who knows exactly what they’re doing. That version of bullying is real, but it’s not the only one — and for kids with ADHD, it can sometimes be...

ADHD and oppositional defiant disorder co-occur far more often than most parents realize. If your child with ADHD also seems to refuse, argue, and push back on almost everything -- and you've wondered whether this is just part of ADHD or something separate -- our post on why the two conditions are so often linked is worth a read.

If your child has ADHD, you may have noticed that defiance — real, persistent, exhausting defiance — seems to come along with it. Refusing requests, arguing about rules, pushing back on almost everything. You might have wondered whether this is just part of ADHD, or something separate entirely. ...

Most people's mental image of ADHD is a kid bouncing off the walls. That image isn't wrong -- it's just incomplete in a way that leaves a lot of adults undiagnosed and confused about why their brains work the way they do.

Most people’s mental image of ADHD is a kid — bouncing off the walls, getting sent to the principal’s office, unable to sit still through a single lesson. That image isn’t wrong, exactly, but it’s incomplete in a way that leaves a lot of adults undiagnosed and confused about why their brai...
