Ever wondered why your child might put off big assignments, even when they care about the outcome?

Procrastination can be a common experience for neurodiverse kids, including those with ADHD or Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). Often, it’s connected to unique executive functioning (EF) profiles—like differences in planning, organisation, or getting started.

Before jumping to solutions, it’s important to pause and understand what’s really going on—whether it’s a particular executive function, boredom, or something else.

By working together to identify the obstacle, you can co-create strategies that play to your child’s strengths. Breaking tasks into smaller, manageable steps, using simple checklists, or exploring helpful technology can make things feel more achievable. Every small win is worth celebrating!

Loving this focus on strengths! One thing I consistently notice in the kids I work with is their incredible creativity during brainstorming sessions. Whether we’re tackling morning routines or cleaning bedrooms, they come up with colourful and interesting ideas such as turning their morning routine into a morning scavenger hunt, or creating a time-lapse video of themselves cleaning their room! The more interesting the idea, the more likely it is to become a reality!
