Accountability Fosters Healing
In any relationship, particularly between parents and children, it is crucial for the parents to take responsibility for repair following conflicts or misunderstandings. Parents should acknowledge their mistakes, such as imposing unrealistic expectations, and express genuine remorse, which fosters compassion and understanding. This accountability lays the groundwork for a healthier dynamic, especially in the context of raising children with neurodiverse conditions like ADHD. Unlike narcissistic parents, who deflect blame onto the child, responsible parents recognize their role in the relationship and strive to improve, thus enhancing emotional connections and trust within the family.
