#013 Letting Go Easily

from St-John On Air · host StJohndeGlanville

Why do children with ADHD fall in love with new activities — and then let them go so quickly?In this reflective, research-grounded night episode, we explore why ADHD children often struggle to stay engaged with hobbies, sports, and projects — and why quitting is not a failure.Drawing on the work of researchers and clinicians such as Dr. Russell Barkley, Dr. Edward Hallowell, Dr. Nora Volkow, Dr. Ross Greene, Dr. Edward Deci, and Dr. Dan Siegel, this episode gently explains how ADHD affects motivation, emotional regulation, and persistence.This episode is for parents, caregivers, and educators who want to support ADHD children with compassion, realism, and trust — and help them grow without pressure or fear of failure.A calm, understanding conversation for late evenings — when parenting questions feel heaviest.If you like what I do, consider buying me a coffee.https://buymeacoffee.com/fzts9andx
