Hey parents!

If you are feeling sapped of energy these days, let’s be clear, “It’s not you…it’s everything that has been thrown at you”. The impact of pandemic life with ADHD on families has been all too much, for too long.

If you are parenting during COVID-19, you are certainly being pushed into new challenges, with less support and more stress. During this time, it is more important than ever to stop, reflect, connect with those around you, and reassess your family goals and priorities.

The vibe at home can be a lot these days. Everyone’s life has been altered and feelings of anxiety and uncertainty are hitting all family members- sometimes at the same time, sometimes at different times.

Parenting is fullon during COVID-19. All the structure and routines you have built over time have been thrown out the window and your life has literally been turned upside down.

Suddenly, parenting is all on you and it’s 24/7.

Parenting with ADHD can be exhausting, frustrating and confusing too. If ADHD is in your home, it impacts the way you live, love and find general satisfaction on a daily basis. In this course, facilitator Laura MacNiven takes parents through a customized journey.

Joanne Nixon shared her ADHD parenting story in the Globe and Mail last week. Her short message packs a punch and leaves you feeling hopeful and realistic at the same time. This article is a must-read for all parents, especially if you have a child with ADHD.
