SUMMARY

We are diving into one of the biggest challenges for kids with ADHD: understanding and managing time. Many children with ADHD struggle with an accurate sense of time, which can lead to frustration, missed deadlines, and a sense of always “falling behind.” If you’ve ever wondered why your child seems to misjudge time and how to make mornings, homework sessions, and routines go more smoothly, this episode is a must-listen!

MEET OUR TEAM

We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. Most importantly, we are moms, just like you. After working with families over a combined total of 40 years, we saw a need to provide ongoing support and education to parents raising children with ADHD.
