Getting Your Child on Board as Their Own Brain Detective

Get your child on board as their own brain detective. Don't get mad at your kid if something works for six months an all of a sudden you need to tweak it. The ability to focus comes from brain chemicals, which we know are produced in much higher quantities when something is highly stimulating like a video game. So think about our own lives. You might be spacing out at a long meeting at work, but 15 minutes later, you come alive again with great focus because you're a happy hour with a friend. If some is identified as having attention problems, usually that indicates that it's difficult for them to manage their own attention and regulate their Attention regulatory system.
