ADHD is often discussed in terms of its challenges, such as difficulty staying focused, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. 🧠🧩💜 However, ADHD is not just a list of obstacles; it also comes with many strengths.

💡 Creativity & Innovation - ADHD minds often think outside the box and link ideas in unexpected, powerful ways.

⚡ Hyperfocus - When truly interested, children with ADHD can dive deep and achieve extraordinary things quickly.

🌱 Resilience & Grit - The challenges they face can build tenacity, adaptability, and strength.

These are just three of many!

💛 October is ADHD Awareness Month 💛

This month is all about understanding, acceptance, and celebrating neurodiversity. ✨

ADHD - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - isn’t just about challenges; it’s also about creativity, energy, and innovative thinking. By learning more and talking openly, we can help break down stigma and build a world that recognises and supports every kind of mind. 💛

Let’s raise awareness, share compassion, and celebrate the strengths that make us all different - and brilliant. 🌟

Q. How do I motivate my teenager to do homework or chores?

If you feel that you are regularly working harder than your child in your efforts to get them to do homework and family chores, you may not only be having an exhausting time parenting, but you may also be denying your children the opportunity to develop self-motivation.

A. Sometimes it can be helpful for young people to face ‘natural consequences.’

If they have been asked to help with laundry, discovering that their favourite trousers aren’t clean when they want them is a ‘natural consequence’. Let it happen instead of stepping in.

Should they receive a detention for homework not being done, they are experiencing the natural consequence of their choice.

If you always step in to rescue them, you are signalling to your teenager that you don’t believe they are capable of taking responsibility. Allow them to motivate their success and learn from their choices.

Experiment with stepping away and handing over responsibility. It will allow you to be less critical or ‘nagging’ in your interactions which will boost their self-esteem in the long run.
