SUMMARY

Change can be tough for many kids, but for children with ADHD, it can feel especially overwhelming. From big shifts like moving to a new school to small changes like switching restaurants at the last minute, these moments often spark resistance and stress (and BIG emotions!). In this episode, we share personal stories and practical tips to make change easier for both you AND your ADHD child.
