What Should Parents Aim To Achieve When Raising An ADHD Child?
Although the study frequently focuses on symptom control or behaviour management, this is not the ultimate goal when raising a child with ADHD. The ultimate goal is to raise an ADHD child who is self-aware, adjusted, and completely embraces their disease
A person who has mastered the art of managing their obstacles and strengths to the best of their ability to successfully navigate social norms, accomplish their goals, and make meaningful contributions to society.
One who, in spite of their ADHD, makes a valiant effort to succeed but is able to kindly and sympathetically catch themselves if they fall—which they will unavoidably do. All the medicine and behaviour modification techniques in the world won't make those of us with ADHD neurotypical, and they aren't perfect either
This objective calls for much more than simply drugs and parenting strategies. For either of the following options, we must truly comprehend ADHD

To keep children safe and to support their success, it is necessary to put scaffolding in place that helps to close the gap between their lagging abilities and executive function delay. This will ensure they grow healthily, realise their full potential, and feel good about themselves
We also need to carefully nurture in children with ADHD the self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-compassion they will need to manage their disorder one day and handle all of life's challenges
