Today, we’re discussing a common challenge many parents face: managing a child’s anger, especially in kids with ADHD.

We’ll explore the root causes of anger in children with ADHD, such as feeling misunderstood or sensory overload, and how external pressures like bullying can intensify these feelings.

I’ll also guide you through some strategies to help your child express and manage their emotions effectively. From using descriptive language to recognise feelings to setting clear consequences for actions, these tips are designed to foster understanding and help with behaviour management.
