Parenting a child with ADHD can feel like navigating a whirlwind—one moment they’re full of creativity and energy, the next they’re completely derailed by the smallest distraction. In this episode of One Eye on Behavior, we break down what’s really going on inside the ADHD brain and share practical, research-backed strategies for parents and educators.

From understanding the “triple threat” of hyperactivity, inattention, and impulsivity, to building predictable routines, creating distraction-free spaces, and using positive reinforcement, you’ll learn how to shift from frustration to empowerment. We also explore the history of ADHD treatment, the debates around medication, and exciting new tools shaping the future of focus.

Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or caregiver, this episode equips you with the mindset and strategies to lead with both heart and structure—helping your child thrive at home, in school, and beyond.
