Episode Description

We’ve all been there. Your child with ADHD comes home from school, drained and frustrated. You ask him to do something simple like take the dog for a walk or you offer a little help as he struggles with homework. And he lashes out, ignores you, or just shuts down.

How do you connect with a child or teen who doesn’t want to talk with you — and who is defensive, angry, or unresponsive? How can you de-escalate these situations and re-establish domestic tranquility? Here, parenting expert Kirk Martin offers practical strategies for turning these potentially explosive situations into opportunities for building a trusting relationship with your child.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • Strategies for responding instead of reacting to your behaviorally challenged child
  • How to lead your child to a calm place by fostering emotional regulation
  • How to teach your child to manage his frustration and disappointment without yelling
  • How to get on the same page as your spouse or handle the potential conflict as a single parent
  • How to de-stress the school and homework experience
