ADHD Meltdowns Are Not Always About the Obvious

Published: Nov. 19, 2015, 1 a.m.

ADHD kids have meltdowns like other children, but they are often more frequent. As a parent, it is instinctive to address or react to what appears to be the obvious trigger... but what the parent is attending to isn’t what the meltdown is always about. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, host Jeff copper (www.digcoaching.com) interviews ADHD and parenting expert Caroline Maguire (www.necoaching.com). In the interview Caroline shares specific examples, some personal, some from others, illustrating what isn’t so obvious about meltdowns and how to better recognize what is going on to better manage yourself, your ADHD child, and the situation. If you’re a parent with ADHD kids, this is a show you don’t want to miss.
