ADHD in Kids
It is estimated that 5-11% of children have ADHD
Knowing the challenges above await the ADHD child in adulthood can be disheartening; before they even get there, kids with ADHD often encounter:
-
Frequent scolding from teachers, caregivers and coaches for their behaviour
-
Trouble making friends and relating to peers
-
Difficulty meeting deadlines and organizing school work
-
Seemingly inconsistent ability to focus: either totally absorbed or totally uninterested
-
Challenges with controlling behaviour, impulses and emotions
-
Emotional sensitivity, especially around rejection and getting in trouble
ADHD has its gifts, too
Passion, creativity and excitement
ADHD provides a brain chemistry that is drawn to excitement and inspiration. Life with ADHD is never dull, and often a lot of fun!
The energy to pursue creative ideas AND try to fit into a world not designed for ADHD brains provides those with ADHD the opportunity to develop resilience, strength and self-awareness.
With the emotional intensity, enthusiasm, divergent thinking, innovation and resourcefulness of ADHD, a rich life of your own making is not just possible.
It’s waiting for you.
