Jo Frost Instagram – Less will always be more parents in avoiding the negative conflicts most ADHD children seek to light up their brains reward system, making them feel buzzed.
Kids learn to push your buttons verbally and physically by being combative,leaning all over you to regulate themselves with physical pressure, this is why your boundaries must be upheld silently, don’t rise to the bait, be so reactive, no need to get loud and make a noise just remain centered and politely uphold. Less is more.
Yes, non adhd children can do the same actions however the difference is a non adhd child needs you less to receive their own pleasure of curiosity and exploration and will be happy to simply go off into their own world even if it’s not something they are super hyperfocused on.
Remember you learn a lot about yourself and your children when you can hold a space in your home to observe….cuppa in hand!
