Back to school looks different when your child has ADHD — and so does preparing for it. The strategies and expectations that work for neurotypical kids often fall flat, leaving parents frustrated and kids feeling like they're already behind before the year even starts. In this practical webinar part of the Brightmont Academy Speaker Series, Master Certified Coach and ImpactParents co-founder Elaine Taylor-Klaus shares what actually needs the attention of ADHD families at back-to-school time, and what is just not worth the stress.
In this session, Elaine will discuss:
- 3 things you can do to readjust your child's sleep schedule
- Give advice on getting your child out the door
- Share 2 new strategies to ensure your kid doesn't fall into the missing assignment trap
Join us to learn how to set realistic expectations for your child's success for the whole year, and leave with a clearer picture of how to prepare.
