49. When to Pursue a Diagnosis, My ADHD Child Shows No Empathy (Q&A Mailbag)


Listen Later

Welcome to another Q&A podcast! 

Full disclosure, I can't answer complex or detailed questions about dynamics between kids, or teachers and kids, or parents and kids, when I don't know the full story. But what I can answer is general topics that keep coming up with parents, teachers, and kids, whether it's a clinical topic, an educational topic, a child psychology question, or just a general parenting question.

Today we have two questions I get all the time:

  1. When should you pursue a diagnosis for your child, even if they're not having trouble at school?
  2. I'm concerned that my ADHD child doesn't show empathy. What can I do?
