Falling Through the Cracks of a Disruptive and Disrupted Childhood with Palo, Dad with ADHD and Dyslexia


Listen Later

Today, we’re talking to Palo.

Palo is a dad with ADHD and dyslexia who basically grew up in a Mark Twain novel. 

In this episode, Palo shares his experiences growing up with ADHD.  He tells stories of being raised by hippies, living an unfettered childhood, getting kicked out of every school he attended, (including kindergarten for not pledging allegiance!), his love of history, frustration with English, how his past challenges affected him when his child started to struggle, and backtracking his wandering thoughts.    (Fair warning, there’s lots of tangents along the way!)
