Episode 53 brings a whole lot of insight for parents - thanks to the great information shared by Dr. Carrie Jackson. Even if you aren't managing ADHD in your own home - this is a great episode for every parent out there. The more we understand about the kids in our neighborhoods and communities - the more compassionate we all become - and the better we can show up for our friends and neighbors!

In this episode Susannah and Carrie discuss:

- Why parenting kids with ADHD is a marathon, and not a sprint
- Common missteps made when trying to parents ADHD kids
- Why positive reinforcement and praise are SO powerful for an ADHD-diagnosed kid
- The differences between hovering and scaffolding - and how it can help you parent a child with ADHD
- How to support a friend whose child has an ADHD diagnosis
