Launching ADHD College Kids Completely Differently
A lot is written on launching kids with ADHD into college successfully. Much of it centers around the need for organization, time management, and executive functioning. What's obvious is that, if it's something they could easily do, they would have done it already. What’s more, many kids at this age don't want to seek help. Host ADHD and attention coach, Jeff Copper (www.digcoaching.com), and co-host Caroline Maguire (www.necoaching.com) discuss a different way of launching ADHD kids into college intended to change their frame of reference in a way that is different from traditional efforts so they may be more motivated and actually seek help. In simplistic terms, it's focusing conversations on what it's going to be like to move back in with their parents for the rest of their lives. The goal of this show isn't necessarily to solve the problem, but to help you think differently and show how you can work with your ADHD teens to motivate them to move forward.
