AP 712: Why You Don’t Have to Be a Perfect Parent to Raise an ADHD Child Well || with Drs. Lori and Mallory from the Childhood Collective

The fear of making mistakes can paralyze parents and prevent true connections with their kids. In this episode I explore this challenge with Drs. Lori and Mallory from the Childhood Collective, focusing on parents of neurodiverse children, particularly those with ADHD. We delve into the societal pressures and internal criticisms that complicate parenting and underscore the importance of striving for connection rather than perfection. Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, we illustrate how embracing mistakes, practicing self-compassion, and prioritizing small steps can lead to more effective and fulfilling parenting. The episode also emphasizes the significance of repair work and offers actionable advice for handling guilt and missteps, ultimately framing imperfection as a gift to our children.
