And then having conversations.
And I think a lot of times, particularly with ADHD, a lot of the parenting books that might say, oh, do this, do this,
they don't always apply if you have a kid with ADHD.
And so fine for parents to find community with other parents who have ADHD podcasts like this and, and educating themselves is so, you know, key and important because it is a different way of kind of being in the world.
And then for those kids to know here, all of these different options.
And I think the most important thing is having them at least buy into the
the model of, okay, I do have ADHD and that means X, Y, and Z, because a lot of the conversations are going to come down to why they might need this kind of structure, why they might need this.
And if a kid understands, okay, yes, having ADHD, I do procrastinate.
So I might need kind of, you know, to write on the whiteboard in the kitchen, okay, seven o'clock, I'm going to start working on this assignment and sort of being a collaborator.
Because you don't want to get into these battles of parents saying, do this, do this, do this, because parents don't like the way that feels
teens don't like the way that feels.
Right.
Because it's normal in adolescence to push back, to not always be motivated, you know, academically because your peer group and the social part sort of takes over, you know, to be not always have your room clean, you know, and those kinds of things.
So where you start to wonder, you know, is this ADHD is, well, one is, is there a family history?
So
are there other members of the family, including the parents themselves, again, they might not be diagnosed, but that they can be like, I can kind of relate to this, you know, in this kind of way, because ADHD is highly heritable.
So it's unusual that
in a person who's biologically related to their members of their family, that they'll be the only ones with ADHD.
But two is a lot of times parents will feel it when they say there's such a disparity between what one would expect given that person's intelligence and the way that they are and they're functioning and in a way that even the teen themselves can be frustrated by.
because sometimes you'll have a kid that's like, yeah, I don't care about math, so I'm not doing it.
