SHINING WITH ADHD

#183: A Parent’s Guide to Effective Consequences for Kids with ADHD

The Childhood Collective

2/5/2025

SUMMARY

Let’s be honest. The word “consequences” can be overwhelming and maybe even a little scary for parents. But the truth is, we all experience “consequences” every day - it can be as simple as buckling your seatbelt so you don’t have to hear that annoying beep in the car! Our goal is to de-mystify consequences, teach you how (and when) to use them effectively, and equip you to handle challenging moments with empathy and clarity.

MEET OUR TEAM

We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. Most importantly, we are moms, just like you. After working with families over a combined total of 40 years, we saw a need to provide ongoing support and education to parents raising children with ADHD.
