Role of Parents and Caregivers

Role of Parents and Caregivers

ADHD children could be gifted and intellectual but are often misunderstood. While they may be challenging to handle, they are never dull. Being a parent to children with ADHD requires certain qualities, which can be challenging. Especially when parents are also handling their mental health challenges, household chores, and work.

Regular disciplining tactics might not always work with ADHD children. Parents must be receptive and open-minded while also learning about behavioral therapy, good parenting, incentives and penalties, and other strategies. This help reduces tantrums and outbursts to solve bad behaviors.

Inaccurate parental perceptions and beliefs may have a negative impact on the early detection of ADHD in their kids. Besides, psychosocial stressors like financial problems and the burden of other children may impact parents' motivation and the ability to seek medical help. To overcome this, parents can teach and practice behavior modification techniques at home to manage children in a peaceful way. Parents and caregivers should be involved in therapy sessions to search for solutions collectively.
